There’s what should’ve been flag #2Had his right arm wrapped around the WR.
Playing like you dont give a damn can be a powerful thing, especially if you are an underdog.UCLA just playing like they don’t give a $hit, up 17-7 at Michigan State. Fake punt, going for it on 4th, etc.
#1 is a walking pass interference for OSUYep. First interception by OSU, the DB was very early.
That -14.5 spread will get blown away.

I don't think the loss is on AK. He isn't perfect, but he played a pretty good game--including running for TDs. Iowa wins because it plays all three phases of the game, including special teams. Iowa started the game with a 103 yard KO return for a TD (receiver took the kick three yards deep in end zone). Iowa had a 50 yard punt return. And Iowa blocked a very makable filed goal attempt. Haven't looked a field position yet, but I'll bet Iowa was competitive there too. If PJ ever found a coach who could make the Gophers special teams an asset rather than a liability--one that just helped us win the field position battle and could kick a 45 yard FG--he might win a game a game or two this year that instead end up as frustrating losses.AK has ability but lacks the intangibles you need at QB. He can put up impressive numbers but when the pressure is on and you need him to lead your team to victory he falls flat way more often then he succeeds.
UCLA up on Michigan State 24-7 at the half. Michigan State was a 7.5 favorite in Vegas (same spread as Gophs are over Purdue). UCLA started 0-4 under original coach this season, with losses against inferior opponents. Now has a new, interim coach. Result? Beats Penn State(!) and appears on the way to boxing Michigan State's ears. Same roster. Completely different team. Coaches matter. Game plans matter.Michigan State was favored against UCLA. But UCLA is up 17-7 in the 2nd quarter. Amazing what a change in coaches (and a change in coaching/game plan philosophy?) can do with the same roster ...
Whaaaat??? 2 PIs on OSU???
Don’t worry back to usual business with no call on a face guard on 3rd downWhaaaat??? 2 PIs on OSU???
That one had me jump out of the chair and I have no vested interest in either team.Don’t worry back to usual business with no call on a face guard on 3rd down
That’s because face guarding is not a penalty in NCAA footballDon’t worry back to usual business with no call on a face guard on 3rd down
I don't pin the loss/losses on AK but he shown time and time again that he isn't a guy who can lead his team to victory when the chips are down. They put up a lot of points in the first half but when things tighten up in the second half they have fallen apart in multiple games.I don't think the loss is on AK.

PJ appears to model on Tressell and Franklin, but those coaches play or played with roster strength and depth PJ will never have at Minnesota. Might work a bit better if PJ modeled his O and D on Cignetti (who plays with a roster we theoretically could match), and on Captain Kirk for special teams.
It is if you impede the wr. He grabs his hand/entire left armThat’s because face guarding is not a penalty in NCAA football
Ole Miss 32.5 favorites as well.Washington State up on Ole Miss 7-3 with 2 minutes left in the half.
No, those are two different things. If you think they missed a DPI, that’s one thing, but face guarding is not a penalty.It is if you impede the wr. He grabs his hand/entire left arm
And I’m torn, I have a niece at Ole Miss, and I want her to be happy, but I hate Lil Kiffy and want him to suffer.Ole Miss 32.5 favorites as well.
More referring to it as the what made it notable of memory, not that the face guarding was the penaltyNo, those are two different things. If you think they missed a DPI, that’s one thing, but face guarding is not a penalty.
Iit may lower the threshold of calling DPI, since the DB is not considered to have an equal right to the ball.
