Andre Ware just criticized the MSU QB for forcing the ball on 4th and 5. Apparently, he prefers throwing the ball away and giving LSU the ball at their own 44.

No one criticized the LSU defender for catching it on his knees instead of knocking it down at the 17. Costing your team 27 yards is not a good thing.

by chg on Sep 26, 2009 1:47 PM EDT reply actions  

I am still trying to figure out the deal with the elimination of the 5 yard facemask penalty? Did they do away with the 5 yard penalty, as in what was previously a 5 yarder is no longer a penalty? Or is any and all facemask touching now a 15 yarder? Seems like it is the latter, which is silly but consistent with the soft touch that the NCAA seems to be moving towards.

Speaking of officiating, does anyone know when Ron Cherry plays today? I was hoping that the Ron Cherry game was at 3:30 in Virginia today, so I could tune in for that and not miss anything.

Indiana is in the game with Michigan because they have a plan and an identity and they’re executing pretty solidly against a much more talented team.

Mississippi State is doing a great job at containing LSU, but continues not to win because of sudden bullshit attacks on offense.

The cowbells can win this one. They won’t because they know who they are, but they could.

If the Skunk Bears lose this game, some offensive players are getting beating with bars of soap. Indiana has only scored one TD on five trips inside the Michigan 30, including two trips inside the 5, but they’re taking a lead into the fourth quarter.

If he gets one concussion vs Kentucky, Urban Meyer will get him killed vs Bama if he doesnt learn to protect him and get a real damn RB and running game. The good news is you get a week to recover before going to LSU at nite…..dont know if Tebow will be getting back so soon, that was more like whiplash/concussion combo with the classic symptoms of brain being scrambled and vomiting. I’ve had one- I was out for 10 mins, and it seemed I had only closed my eyes for 5 secs…..couldnt give my name cuz I didnt know it, could read simple words, they were all scrambled and out of order….couldnt write things in order like address and social whilst filling out hospital paper work..I know how Alzheimers patients feel, and it is fucked up totally. It felt like my brain was still going in circles inside my head and the room was spinning, which is what causes the vomiting, its like a ride where you want to get off, except when you want to get past the point of where you would jump off, it seems thats when it gets going the fastest, then you call your boy ralph…..alot…..he is getting a CAT Scan as we speak, and Im guessing he wont be back for LSU….I was out for 3 weeks, and as far as contact goes, you get gun shy cause you dont want to feel that way ever again, and he took a helluva a shot from the back of the head, I dont think his neck will be healed enough….good luck Timmy.

I love Mike Patrick and Craig James going on and on and on and on and on and on about not kicking kickoffs through the end zone when you’re up at the 45. And then they put the ball on the 25-yard line because it’s 30 yards from the spot of the kick, and they only lost five yards and they look like a couple dumb shits.

by JD on Sep 26, 2009 11:54 PM EDT reply actions  

@53 – Just a reminder, Pelican Pants, Tebow wasn’t injured on a run, he was injured on a bitz in the passing game where he ended up taking a sack (one of two he took in the game) and it wasn’t the sack that caused the concussion, it was the fluke of having his own lineman’s knee as a landing spot instead of the soft embrace of CM Newton Field.

The Gators had 370 yards in the running game of which 240 belonged to the imaginary running back corps and non-existent running game. Point is, the gators have three real running back and a real running game, right now they don’t have a passing game with Tebow in, and that’s the biggest concern.

by JD on Sep 27, 2009 12:14 AM EDT reply actions  

@Lars

What I meant to say was, a running game inside to pound defenses instead them teeing off on Tebow, since Meyer has no problem letting Tebow play that role. With Harvin, you could throw a 5 yrd out and Harvin could take it to the house. Without Harvin, there is no passing game meaning there is no breakaway threat to keep people honest. That frees up a defender to blitz Tebow. With Meyer getting greedy, this is what you get, an injured Tebow.
An injured Tebow, passing or no passing game, is bad for Florida. And Bama is pretty good on defense this year, alot better than last year. Even with Tebow in there, there is a rhythm that is missing for Florida, maybe even chemistry. Its not as smooth vs decent defenses, and UT had a good defense. The diff between UT and Bama is that Bama can run the ball, and even pass it. It will be EPICin the ATL this year for SECCG. With or without Tebow. We prefer without Tebow. He needs his rest.
Craig James is really a patient man in the booth with Mike “I wonder what Britney is doing with her life” Patrick…….I figured he’d choked him out by now……..

I guess it was inevitable that “OMG Urban Heartless Bastard Winning Automaton” was going to become a thing after this injury, but seriously: in what universe was this freak injury Urban’s fault? A man came free on a blitz and hit the QB hard. Out of all football plays, this happens maybe, what, 10 times a year for most teams? Not even that many? And out of those, how often does the QB land on his lineman’s knee?

I don’t quite understand how an inside running game (that we didn’t have in that game?) makes that play any different.

Tebow wasn’t in too long. Urban didn’t put his players in danger for the sake of a win. A freak accident occurred and luckily it looks like Tebow wasn’t permanently injured.

@ huskerpower: USC could certainly lose more than one more game this year if they don’t play more disciplined . Turnovers and penalties can kill any team and USC still has way too many of both. I’m also frustrated that the offensive line seems unable to overpower opponents on short yardage situations the way a USC team should.

On the bright side, Barkley’s development is coming along nicely. The coaches let him throw down some longer routes and he looked good. He was victimized by a couple of drops and penalties or his numbers would have been even better.

Giving up the touchdown at the end was a cosmetic defect only. Pete had pulled all the starters from the game at that point. The WSU drive began with a Corp fumble and although the backups did allow a score, they made some good plays as well.

sure, oc phil….if you want her to be.

however, historically “average” in the SEC equates to “above average” in most other conferences.

The numbers will show the SEC is the superior conference, anyway you want to look at them. Let’s take for example the BCS Bowls since the BCS was formed.

The SEC is 12-5 (.710), the Big-10 is 8-11 (.421), the Big-12 is 7-9 (.438), the PAC-10 is 9-4 (.692), the Big East is 6-5 (.545), and the ACC is 2-9 (.182).
