SEMOSTLfan Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I'm watching the Sugar Bowl and I noticed earlier today in the Fiesta Bowl that certain pass interference calls were marked from the spot of the foul where others were automatic 15 yard penalties. I thought pass interference in college was always 15 yards. Can anyone explain the difference?sorry, just realized i spelled inconsistencies wrong in the title. my bad.

slapshot Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 It all depends on the spot of the foul. Less than 15 yards from the line of scrimmage, it's a spot foul. More than 15 yards, then it's 15 yards from the line of scrimmage, period.Penalties can also be lessened if they occur within the 30 yard line (if I remember), because then it's half the distance to the goal line.
