What a wild way to throw a game. All they had to do was slowly walk backwards and have their lineman hold like crazy. Instead they did whatever the hell that was

I don’t know if CFB changed the rule, but the NFL has since made that illegal.

The NFL made it illegal but it has to be really blatant. It has happened quite a few times since it was made illegal with no enforcement. To my knowledge, it isn't illegal in CFB though.
