Was the fumble call a bad call or good call?
I thought he fumbled it just before crossing the goal line but it was so close. If he crosses the line and then lost control it was a TD. Young kid making extra effort. Can’t fault him for that.

I wonder if Estime took some time to talk to Bettis one-on-one when he was here finishing his degree.

If he did, it is paying off.

It was the right call. UNC guy was basically standing on the line and knocked it out as Estime reached for the TD. Estime’s other hand was on the ground, and I think his foot, but not his elbow or knee.

I thought he might have crossed the plane before he lost it, but ultimately it can be a learning moment. You'd rather there be a learning opportunity in a game you're controlling as oppose to a tight game or one you're behind in.

Looked good. I didn't think so at first, but the replay looked at like it got smacked out just before his body hit the ground. Only notice his hand and foot down personally.

There were a lot of comments I saw about Estime's blocking being improved Saturday. He struggled with blitz pickup against tOSU, it's nice to see he's adjusting.

Totally whiffed that block. Way to make up for it
I think till now I've missed the failed block on that sequence, I was more focused on the underhanded toss and the hurdle. Just goes to show you never give up on a play.

"Audric, when you whiff that hard on a block, and I start to think that maybe you're not the second coming of Bettis, you get up to catch a shovel pass..."

Happy for Audric. And happy that the staff stuck with him, despite how frustrating and costly the fumbles have been. He’d never see the field again if this was last season.
