College Football Catch-All Thread

[Bigs23]

Why is that peculiar?

I think football at all levels have a rule that allows the refs to award points for an egregious penalty that serves no purpose but to prevent the other team from completing an obvious score. It's rare that a player/team does something clear cut enough to enforce such a rule, but I'm pretty positive it exists at all levels.

Right. What other ruling would they make?

How was that hit in the Penn State and Oregon game not targeting?

Both PSU/Oregon and Bama/UGA living up to the hype.

Good grief, you could put that in the instructional video for refs on when to call targeting.

Hooray for Oregon!

Stupid Bama.

The runner was no longer defenseless. Therefore the question is whether he used the crown of the helmet.

Well, it is State.

Sweet that they probably had the first down on that last drive but the replay didn’t show it. I love it when they think they were robbed.

The runner was already down. And I don't think you have to use the crown if you strike the offensive player in the head that way.

Numbers 3, 4, 5 and 8 all beaten by lower ranked teams this weekend.

He brought that tackling technique with him from Chapel Hill.

So—are both UVA and FSU good teams? Or are they both standard mediocre ACC teams?

UVA has a pretty easy schedule from here on—they don’t play UM, GT, or Cuse. Will they drop a game or 2 against subpar conference teams?

What to make of FSU? Will they rebound or will they end up with 3-4 losses minimum?

Is anyone in the ACC good?

You put students in the upper sections with no direct field access.

The Smith Center approach.
