it was a catch, he never lost control of the ball and wasn't even closeI know I've reviewed it several times and it always looks like a catch to me.
this is the relevant part
College’s catch rule is now more confusing than the NFL’s
That thing the NFL got rid of after lots of people complained? It’s still part of college football’s catch rule.
If the ball touches the ground after the player secures control and continues to maintain control, and the elements above are satisfied, it is a catch...
Those last two graphs go to the same point: Just because the ball wiggles or comes loose doesn’t mean a receiver hasn’t made the catch.
