Marshall-West Virginia, Live: Was Aaron Dobson’s 96-Yard Touchdown Catch Legitimate?

The most exciting moment of Friday night’s Marshall-West Virginia game so far has been Marshall receiver Aaron Dobson’s 96-yard touchdown catch. ESPN is showing replays, though, that clearly show Dobson dumping the ball in celebration prior to his feet crossing the end zone. Take a look:

That was ruled a touchdown, as nobody seemed to notice as it happened, but if Marshall ends up holding its lead (14-6 in the third quarter at the moment) and pulling a Coal Bowl upset, rest assured that Mountaineer fans won’t soon forget this.
