Reminds me of the end of the 1993 Colorado game at Stanford.

Fabulous comeback victory.

Rules have changed since then, possibly in some part because of this catch.  Don't know the precise wording, but I believe the essence now is to require a receiver who falls to maintain possession as he goes to the ground.

That is an interesting play.  Kline was not going to fall, he had the ball in his hands with at least one foot on the ground and then he was hit and the ball was knocked loose.  Is the rule today that the receiver who has the ball in the end zone must maintain possession through a hit that happens after a catch?  And how long must he have possession?  The hit on Kline was almost instantaneous...
