  1. It was play action, they showed it on replay (plus you can see it on Skycast version). Play worked exactly as designed but of course with every play action the OL doesn't hold up so Ewers had to step up in the pocket a bit to buy the half second needed for Helm to get up the seam.
  2. Yep that one was a good read and bad throw. You could see immediately that throw needed to be on a line. The only way they make a play is if you float it and let the backside safety into the play.
  3. Ewers was gunshy on this one, I had it as one of his 4 mistakes on the day. Wingo was a pretty easy playside read with his CB bailing way past the sticks and Wingo runs a wide open comeback with room to spare. Not a big mistake but a convertible opportunity.
  4. Not true. You can't be in forward motion at the snap. You can move forward during motion and it happens all the time when changing formations.
  5. It's because he got hit hard. They give warnings when they have to work around someone but there's no collision. It was a completely justified flag.
  6. Not surprising if you watched the game, Bill.
  7. Matt Austin was wrong about that one, too. He had a terrible few days as a "rule expert." It was a ticky tack call for sure, but the WR started his motion before the TE had become completely set after his shift.
  8. The only non-safety option was throwing it away either sailing it over Davis or into the ground next to Golden but that is expecting unreasonably quick thinking plus that the refs still wouldn't have called it grounding.
  9. It comes from wealthy nobility having pale skin so you could see their veins while the working class spent time outside so you couldn't.
  10. It was Tony Jones against Arkansas in 1987.
  11. Anyone who watched Jalen Milroe play against OU and Michigan and is certain they would beat any particular team with a pulse is an idiot.
  12. Exactly. That win was bigger than a quarterfinal, the BC choke notwithstanding.
  13. Result? Two Big Ten teams, Notre Dame, and a legacy Big 12 team in the semifinals. The closest other team is a legacy Pac-12 now Big 12 team losing in double overtime.
  14. I'm thinking that Sankey won't be as vocal anymore about tonight's winner getting an extra night.
  15. Illegal formation
  16. The bear hug was after the ball got there.
  17. Wow that was a stunningly inept defensive series
  18. Hahaha less than one minute ago in game time it was 6-3
  19. There's no excuse for Notre Dame not to have a Riverdance team celebration in their arsenal now that short ones are allowed.
  20. We just saw a play where the receiver kept running straight so the DB was directly on top of him jamming him 15 yards downfield. It's not common, I'm just saying it's perfectly legal in college.
  21. Wow terrible to take a sack there
  22. Not in college. If you stay on top of the receiver in college you can maintain contact all the way down the field. Pretty sure there still isn't even an illegal contact penalty in the rules against an eligible receiver.
  23. If Abdul Carter is fully healthy I could actually see James Franklin making the NCG. That's incredible.
  24. Interesting situation. The ball of that foot was in bounds then slid out when he pushed off of it. To me that's the same thing as dragging a toe. Catch but out of bounds at that spot.
  25. The back leg requirement for roughing is so dumb. When you're hit that hard there's a risk of landing awkwardly etc.
