Yes, saw that as well. I don't know when the fumble occurred so I don't know if he was down, forward progress stopped, etc. But I noticed watching live that Lamb was pointing down at the goal line, then on the replay that one of the linemen was lying on the ball, holding it on the goal line.

My 14 year old saw that and was screaming for the TD.

I saw that too, but when nothing was called, I just figured Upshaw was down. It's real clear that Acey had the ball and it was OVER the goal line.

Well my real question was why didn't we challenge but I think that Moose was right that if he was ruled down a challenge is not allowed --- anyone know?

If it was ruled down then I believe it can't be challenged.
