No. But he can defend legally, right? Or was his only option to jump on him, wrap his arm around his neck and drive his head in the ground?

He didn't jump on him to begin with, at least not before the ball got there. Slow motion made that look much worse than it was. That was as close to "bang bang" as you can get in real time.
 
After score 4Q 14:00 24-21 Bama

The spot foul for PI really only sucks because of how subjective the call has become, and how horrible NFL officiating is. If it was officiated correctly all the time, make it a spot foul all day long...but it's become a bailout way more often than it hasn't.

So if there's PI, it's only PI if it happens in real time? If it looks worse in slow motion it's not PI?

Not necessarily, but sometimes...yes. That guy got the WR's neck a millisecond before the ball got there. It's much more pronounced when watching it in slow motion.

Becaus Hail Marys can be 70 HD penalties

It's absurd

I don't think many would agree

You solely feel that PI should not be a spot foul because of hail mary's? How many times have you seen PI called on a hail mary? I can't recall it happening.

Unless college rules on pick plays are different, that looks like OPI all day.

Well it was certainly close, but the rule in the NFL is a "buffer zone" of either 1 or 2 yards (can't remember, think it's 1 though) where it's not considered a pick. It looked like the pick occurred past 2 yds either way, but it was close.
