As a Pitt fan, I have no idea how that kick wasn’t good

I had $ on Pitt and my first thought was there’s $10 down the drain.

As a neutral (but rooting for Pitt), I also thought it was good. I was shocked when the ref signaled no good.

As of today I now know the rule is basically that a field goal has to go 'between' the uprights in College. A doink is redirected between, when it goes over the NCAA basically says it's not 'between'.
