    Week 8 Other Games Thread

    So...I was at the Georgia-Texas game this past weekend (yeah, good for me!) It was the damndest thing I've ever seen. The crowd was going bananas. You didn't have the good TV replay like I've seen now; all you really had was that there was some contact between the two. There definitely was...

    So how are the 6A brackets determined? I understand about the sections & that placement, but what determined where some of those sections go in what bracket? Is it predetermined? Or do they try to do some snake seeding? Seems like #1 Maple Grove got the shortest end of the stick with the...

    Oregon 12 Players on the Field

    I think the benefit was that along with chew up clock as it would tick during the play. With this, time can still come off the clock if it's the running off the field. And they can start with 12 & have a slot CB jogging off the field just prior to the snap......at least that's how I can see it...

    Oregon 12 Players on the Field

    Now they just added another loophole that teams can use by running guy off at last second. Just go with the offense has option to have time go back to what it was before the play if it's under 1:00 & let's call it a day!

    Oregon 12 Players on the Field

    Here’s the rules interpretation handed down by the NCAA to close the loophole in the illegal substitution foul that Oregon used against Ohio State.

    Oregon 12 Players on the Field

    If a team is up late in the game in their territory & they're going to snap it on 4th down to their punter who is going to run around & then take the safety, most teams (if they're coached properly) are going to tackle all the guys rushing to possibly allow the punter more time to run around in...

    News coming Monday on potential Rule Breaking by UCLA?

    I try not to overly criticize coaches when it comes to stuff like this, but I thought their time management that last drive was also poor as well. It's easier to dictate time management on offense....you can hurry up, speed up the tempo, go out of bounds, spike the ball. Defensively, they let...

    Edina is struggling right now. Rumor I heard is Swinney may have gotten in trouble with the law.....don't know if that's true or not as I haven't watched any Edina games the past few weeks.

    As long as the teacher in question doesn't get asked to the prom by one of the players, I think the whole thing "should" blow over & be a non-issue...... The coach will probably win out in this as well......he has a statue after all!

    Was Henderson Injured?

    I like Maverick.......Lindenberg leaves a bit to be desired. I think losing Baranowski for an extended period does not help the defense. Hopefully it wasn't a collar bone like it looked like in the Michigan game.

    USC = the new Nebraska?

    Haha. I get what you're saying. Definitely some arrogance to them. I do think that they will avoid anything like Nebraska though simply because of their location. They're still a well respected university (as long as Aunt Becky isn't trying to buy her kids' way into admission) in a fertile...

    A good number do for sure, absolutely. It's an interesting community.....lots of haves & have nots in terms of personal wealth. I'm guessing all districts have some, but it really seems to be quite a gap, at least from what I see.

    To be fair, they would have had a strong chance to win it in 2020; Covid shut them down. You are correct though; there have not been many classes that have gone their 4 years without a championship. And the demographics have change drastically. Football may be ok, but hockey has been hit...

    Quarterback sneak. One thing I don't understand

    Pfft........that's just another step to the Skynet machines taking over! The world was a better place when my car got 40 rods to the hog's head for fuel efficiency. And give me 2 sticks & a chain! I love me some measurements with crowd gasps. Plus the simple pleasure of watching a D jump up...

    I'm worried PJ will become a thrill seeking degenerate play calling gambler now

    I think it's about the game situation & how it's going. Until the 3 & out between the tying & go ahead TD's, USC's offense was moving the ball with relative ease. Fortunately we made a play on the INT; otherwise they may have kicked a FG & went up 10.....probably knew that a FG wouldn't be...
