Spurrier questions legality of Alabama's kick methods

20

Spurrier: "Their holder on extra points and field goals had a little piece of white tape. ... And he put (the tape) down and that was their spot," Spurrier is quoted as saying by The State newspaper. "And the guy kicked it, and occasionally he'd go way over there and grab it (after the kick). I'd never seen that before. So I think we've gotta call the head of officials to see if that's legal." The NCAA rulebook states that: "Any device or material used to mark the spot of a scrimmage place kick or elevate the ball makes the kick illegal." Think anything will come of this? I had never noticed it before, nor did I know it was illegal.
