Photo: Did South Carolina really get that first down against Georgia?
Exactly. The inside edges of the poles are to be exactly 10 yards apart. They blew the call, even after the generous spot.
What rules would those be? The one the CBS announcers clearly got wrong? Article 7 in the rule book clearly states "The yardage chain shall join two rods not fewer than 5 feet high, the rods inside edges being exactly 10 yards apart when the chain is fully extended." So, was it a first down? The evidence says no.
