Week 10: Titans at BEARS, noon (CT) on CBS
SpongeWorthy replied to rawaction's topic in Other Sports
Looks like we've gotten our obligatory good Rex drive and now we're on hang on for dear life mode. -
I thought Texas Tech's OOC schedule was an absolute disgrace. But they've definitely passed the eyeball test for me the last couple of weeks. And if they make it through the rest of the season unbeaten they definitely deserve all the accolades they get. They are a complete ball club and they have the best player in the country (by a significant margin, IMO) in Crabtree.

That was the correct call. The receiver on the top side of the formation was ineligible.

If Lebron doesn't win several rings and several MVPs by the time his career has finished something has gone horribly awry. He is like Jim Brown in the way he is so athletically superior to his competition. -
A Cal reciever just made one of the most incredible one handed catches I've ever seen. It was like the Brandon Lloyd grab he made as a Niner.

More dumb errors by Notre Dame? HOW CAN THIS BE?

Les Miles, in his wildest dreams, could never do what Peterson and Mendenhall have done at Boise State or BYU. I'm a lot more confident that those coaches could replicate Miles' success at a program like LSU. They'll probably get their chance (although the circumstances won't be nearly as cushy as Miles' were where a superpower was already in place--more likely they'll have to take over a down program like Tennessee or Washington) eventually. Les Miles couldn't turn Oklahoma State into anything more than a Big XII also-ran (even with the Boone Pickens lavishing money on the program).

Leach, Peterson, Mendenhall, Kelly, Beamer, Richt, Spurrier, etc.

Saban turned LSU into a machine. The best I can say for Les Miles is that he didn't screw up the recruiting after Saban left. I'm not crazy about retaining Crowton as OC either--he was awful as the Bears OC and pretty bad at BYU and Oregon as well. He's like Larry Coker accept Coker seemed like a decent man and not an insufferable douche like Miles is.
-
Yes. He's not Saban or Meyer, but he's one of the top coaches in the country. My god he's 45-7 or something at LSU. He's had a rough bump this season. Really the big screw up for them this season is lack of a good QB. The Perriloux situation really hurt them. C'mon they took a top five team to OT. theyre fine. they played well. they got outclassed by the best team in the country though, but right now florida would beat anyone like that. This is the sort of "his track record is good!" thinking that led people to believe that Dusty Baker was a good manager. I've watched a lot of LSU football and to even put this fraud in the class of Saban, Carroll, Meyer, etc. is just way off base. The guy makes boneheaded decisions like they're going out of style. He's gotten really lucky on some of them but we'll start to see some mean reversion on that (we already have). As bad as Michigan is, they should thank their lucky stars this loser didn't accept the job.
-
BTW, anyone still think Les Miles is an elite coach? Crowton is a moron as well.
-
Does anyone actually think Alabama is one of the 5 best teams in the country, let alone the best?
-
blocked!
-
The ball hadn't gotten there yet. It wasn't even close to getting there.
-
in other words, "i don't really understand the rule well enough to explain my position" I understand the rule--which is why I know it was the correct call.
-
Why would I want to make an argument for something that is self evidently correct? Just watch the highlights later. If it makes you feel better I totally agree about the blown no-call on grounding.
-
Bama's ramming it down LSU's throat on this drive.
-
LSU on the 'Bama 1 down by 7!
-
No, you don't understand the rules. If you did, you would know that was blatant PI. I'm not trying to sound like an ahole but it was in no way questionable. It's not even a matter of interpretation or opinion. It was clear.
-
fixt
-
defensive player was making a play for ball, so no interference...know the rules I know the rules. In fact, I'd say anyone who doesn't think that was anything but blatant PI has a dubious grasp at best of the rules. It was obvious.
-
It was blatant PI.
-
Hollly crap. Huge 3rd down conversion there. Think the Iowa kicker is nervous?
-
WOW. HUGE PENALTY. LET'S GO IOWA CLAP CLAP CLAPCLAPCLAP!!!
-
That's just a really bad throw by Clark there. Man if the DB doesn't run into his own guy he takes that a lot further.
