I know that we've seen a lot of crazy things happen already this season in College Football, but was that 4th and 25 conversion the craziest one yet?

It was insane. Apparently there is a rule that Ark broke on the play that wasn't called. Not to mention Olé Miss had the game wrapped up with a game ending sack but the DE grabbed the face mask the next play. The face mask was a but questionable to me because the only time I saw the replay it appeared that the QB ducked down and pretty much caused the face mask. Oh well. Was an exciting game none the less

What rule?

Can't advance the ball on a fumble on 4th down. Since Collins didn't catch Henry's lateral, it's a fumble and the play should've been blown dead as soon as he grabbed the ball.

The play was legal.  There is a differentiation between a fumble and a backward pass.  This was declared a backward pass which can be advanced.
