He was on top of Warner after a play, took his hand and deliberately punched him through the hole in the helmet right in front of a ref. It was Deuce Latui not Warner.
I'd whine about Fitzgerald pushing off Peanut on that reception and not getting flagged for it but frankly this defense deserves to get a TD scored on it this drive.
I don't recall Peterson "mugging" Jones. He looked ineffective when Peterson was on the field because McElroy is terrible. Peterson is probably the best cover corner in the country. That being said, every BCS conference has a vested interest in getting a 2nd team in a BCS game and that needs to be corrected by having independent officials.
I'm so stoked on Noah. Hopefully he can keep it up. He's really a fun player to watch even if he can't score much on his own. Aside from the obvious good stuff tonight I thought he looked really great defending smaller guys out on the floor. He has a good defensive technique. I also like how you can feel comfortable with him handling the ball on the break or nabbing a board and pushing it a bit before throwing an outlet pass. When Miller hit him with that interior behind the back pass for the dunk all I could think was what would happen if someone threw a pass like that to Chandler. I think it would've given him a brain aneurysm. And Rose isn't anywhere near where he needs to be on offense but I think the offseason focus on defense for him has really improved him on that end. He's getting in a good stance and really fighting through screens to keep the opposing PGs in front of him.
Hmm, you're right now that I look at the standings. USC is the only one that has the quality opponents ahead of it and enough sex appeal to derail a Boise bid I think. Edit: MAYBE Arizona as they have Oregon, Cal, and USC remaining.
TCU's going to stay ahead of Boise if they both go undefeated and would be guaranteed a BCS berth. Oregon's loss hurts Boise so I do think they'd get bumped by certain 2 loss teams, yes.
