My understanding, at least in the pro game, is that if it's touched before 10 yds, it's a penalty and a rekick if the kicking team recovers.

The booth was wrong in saying that it should have been Oklahoma's ball.

They were not! The rest of America and I saw the Duck bat the fricking ball forwards to make it past the 10-yd line to CHEAT and make it a legal onside kick.

The refs claimed that it was OU who touched it - yeah, way after the 10-yd line. No, sirreee, the booth was right. It *should* have been our ball - but refs hate OU and never never do anything that will give us a break - EVER.

Right after that, the pass interference call - once again, they side with Ducks. Can't say I saw that one, I had my eyes covered after that sickness they called reffing.

I read on a sports website that it's the receiving team's choice - make them re-kick or get the ball after penalty yardage is assessed.
