Did you know that a player cannot jump over the punt protection shield when trying to block a punt. If someone does, it's a 15 yard personal foul penalty. Missouri just got fucked over by this joke of a rule.

Ive seen it called on an extra point before. The defense jumped to block it and the o lineman dove at his legs, they called the leaping penalty because the guy that jumped isnt allowed to land on anybody...i think. :noidea:

Our guy completely cleared the blockers going for the punt. He didn't take out any blockers in the process.

Stupid rule. If you’re bad ass enough to go over the top you shouldn’t be penalized.

Is the for special teams plays? Because i have seen a lot of linebackers jump runningbacks that try to block them by diving at their ankles.
