College Football - Week 3 (Sept. 13)

[Guest]

Flip a coin. That was both a 1st down and not a 1st at the same time.

 

To be fair, it was a pretty poor spot against South Carolina.

RT @BruinReport: So UCLA wins the toss and elects to defer. And then Texas chooses to kickoff. So UCLA will get it twice.

Yeah, that was one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

 

@BruinReport: The ref even turned the microphone off to explain to the Texas captain what he was doing. And they still chose to kick.

Holy [expletive] that is one of the dumbest gaffes I've ever heard. Has this ever happened before?

I've seen it before. Some teams would rather start with their defense on the field in both halves, thinking that a defense stop + punt will give their offense better starting field position than a kickoff return

[Derwood]

regardless of rooting interest, PSU vs. Rutgers has been a terrible game so far

purdue puttin the b1g on their back

No. God no. No one is choosing one less possession in a game on purpose. That would be like the Lions choosing the wind at the start of OT. I refuse to believe any coach has purposely chosen to kick off both halves.

 

Ps according to Fox, this happened to UCLA 2 years ago.

Rutgers outplaying Penn State on every level. Blocked FG, blocked punt, sacking Hackenberg, stuffing the run.....disgusting display

[SpongeWorthy]

There have been Shipleys on Texas since the 1970s right

[Derwood]

so, so ugly. my optimism from PSU's insanely easy schedule is being severely tempered by their terrible line play

It's like Penn State has to deal with reduced scholarships or something.

[Ryne Ween]

Are Rutgers and marylad the best team in the big ten then?

There's talent there, but the coaching isn't good. The DC and OC aren't impressing me this season

Mora's horrible QB recruiting burning them today. Inexcusable that a walk-on is the top backup.

[dew1679666265]

Tennessee is getting pretty well dominated by Oklahoma so far, but has managed to keep it just at 20-7 late in the first half.

 

Would've been just 13-7, but the refs blew a replay call that looked pretty clearly like an OU fumble.

[dew1679666265]

Butch Jones is way too conservative in these mismatch games. If you want to have a chance to hang with teams like Oregon and Oklahoma with a down program, you have to take chances and he just refuses to do that.

[dew1679666265]

Haven't watched the game, but either Kentucky all of a sudden has a great defense or it's more of the same for Florida's offense this year.

 

6-3 UF midway through the 3rd quarter.

Is james franklin black? I thought he was black at vandy but now he looks like an Italian. What's the deal there?

So you're saying he's changing like early-Simpsons Smithers?

[Guest]

Thanks for the coin toss, Texas!

 

(UCLA finally scores on the first drive in the second half.)

[SpongeWorthy]

we suck

[Guest]

I didn't know how badly I wanted "3-0 Rutgers leads the Big 10" to be a thing, but now that it's nearly upon us it's all I can think about.

 

In other news, Florida's offensive resurrection appears to be premature, and what is happening to USC? Boston College?

@celebrityhottub If Jesus comes back as a kicker, Jeff Driskel would make an amazing John the Baptist.

@SLGreenberg: Tim Beckman: “You take out 21 points on three plays and we’re in this football game.” Yes, he really said that.

 

Jerry Palm ‏@jppalmCBS: You take out 106 years and we're world champions. #IfTimBeckmanRanTheCubs
