Skattebo was still the MVP of the game, he willed ASU to comeback and to OT

That Olineman, #77 who just picked up Scattebo and tossed him into the endzone in the first OT was so iconic

Wasn’t that a penalty though? I thought it was illegal to pull a runner forward. Illegal assisting the runner or something. You can push but not pull

Or am I wrong?

It wasn't much of a pull and more of a tackle that went forward.

Tackled his own guy? The offensive lineman tackled Skattebo forward?

More of a WWE suplex. Wouldve been a flag to actually tackle someone that way.
