YESSSS

THE DEVILS! DEVILS!

OMG. This is an epic collapse.

This game might cause Sarkesian to start drinking again.

 

[upnorthkid]

ugh. false start. get 5-8 back here. don't get greedy leavitt

edit: yep he got greedy.

 

[Gopherchase]

couldn't disagree more. Ewers is a solid college QB (he is not an elite NFL guy). You can absolutely win with that. TX bigger problem is they have zero run game and a revolving door on the OL right now. Been the problem in every big game they've played
GA 1st time: 230 passing, 27 rushes for 29 yards (21 for 63 if you take out Ewers stats/sacks)
GA 2nd time: 358 passing, 28 rushes for 31 yards (22 for 58 if you take out Ewers stats/sacks)

Neither of them have “It”. That last drive says it all very Cousins like when the game is on the line. I think ND’s QB has what it takes.

What is ASU doing? Texas has two timeouts left.

 

[upnorthkid]

will this get a targeting review?

edit: it absolutely should be targeting

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Targeting 100%

Targeting

 

[Sparlimb]

Definitely Targeting

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

Targeting

How the heck did he hold on to the ball??

 

[upnorthkid]

that is a really tough play for the Texas defender as the tipped ball really messes with timing and causes the WR to drop down to catch it

 

[stocker08]

Does it matter that he had his head up and didn't use the crown of the helmet?

 

[upnorthkid]

Does it matter that he had his head up and didn't use the crown of the helmet?

only if saying he's not defenseless; don't know how that isn't targeting

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Big Ten

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

BS

 

[Gopherchase]

What a joke.

 

[fmlizard]

Texas got a gift. That was targeting.

 

[Rex]

that should have been targeting....imho

 

[GophersInIowa]

That’s simply because of the moment. That’s targeting.

 

[stocker08]

Refs wussed out.

 

[Gophers1992]

I’m generally of the belief that a lot of these targeting calls are too strict, but based on what else seems to get called I don’t really get how that one is not targeting.

"After discussion with the CFP Committee we decided, "Don't Mess with Texas!"

 

[upnorthkid]

Texas getting the OSU, Michigan treatment I see

 

[Stuff]

I still don't know what targeting is or isn't. Seems like it's whatever the refs feel like.

This. Same hit in the first quarter they call targeting.

 

[upnorthkid]

I still don't know what targeting is or isn't. Seems like it's whatever the refs feel like.

seems like you know exactly what targeting is

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Does it matter that he had his head up and didn't use the crown of the helmet?

By rule no, being defenseless and contact with arm, head, shoulder to head or neck

Horrible non-call

 

[Gopherchase]

Punt reminded me of our guy. I’ve never seen a more clear cut targeting unless you can’t get that by rule on a tipped ball?
