I'll say it before the Illinois guys: Byrd never should have been given that timeout because he was falling out of bounds.
Edit- and yeah, he was still sliding too.
Not sure what the college rule but in high school, maybe two years ago, they changed the rule that if you are sliding with the ball, you can call a timeout and it's not a travel. But if you roll on the ground, its a travel.
I didn't see the play you are talking about either.
