Clempson and Wake tied at half time. Wake is literally one of the worst FBS programs, and they are tied with clempson

Wake celebrates a halftime tie like most teams celebrate a rivalry win.

The real question is: is it even possible to have avoided saying something bad about Oklahoma State at some point?

I don't think there was helmet to helmet on that targeting call.

Seemed like a bullshit call.
Seemed like there was a bit, but it was pretty incidental and not the main impact of the hit.

ACC refs, folks.

I wonder if the coaching staff can file a formal complaint and get the targeting penalty overturned for the first half of next week's game.

What a shock! Clemson can't convert short yardage!
That assumes that what counts as refereeing in the Pac 12 actually meets the definition of refereeing. As it clearly does not, it's entirely likely that ACC refs are the worst.
Nope, there's no appeal process for it. After the initial video review, the suspension is final.

Cheer up guys. We survived the Cole as starting qb era.
Yeah, we got fucked by that earlier this season.
Review official didn't overturn it even though the call was ridiculous, so the NCAA wouldn't do anything about it.

I don't think you guys realize how bad playing chop block central is going to be with a backup safety for a half. We traded in one problem for another.

Don't the Pac 12 have one less ref on the field than the other conferences this year?
Sumlin has ridden the coattails of Art Briles and Mike Sherman's recruited talent.

GT chop blocks? No, never them according to their fans
As a DC? Sure, but if you can't win at UF with the available talent there, how could he win at an ACC school with less talent available? Muschamp isn't even Al Golden tier. I don't see the parallels between a coach that averages 9 wins in the nation's toughest conference vs one that can't win at an already established AAA level program.
Look at it another way, both teams playing their best, who in the ACC beats UGA? FSU is the only one I'd feel confident in. Which ACC team could beat UF in its current state?

You have so many points here, and I agree with all of them.
5 star (according to Rivals) safety Reshad Roundtree just committed to UGA over the Buckeyes. Big pickup for UGA and for Pruitt for next year. He'd been considered a UGA lock, but took a visit to Columbus last week and some thought he could change his mind. This is a much needed pickup for our untalented and thin secondary.
This is Georgia's 3rd five star commit for 2015. We're coming for you, Bama! :jnc

Georgia is usually pretty great at finding elite talent. Keeping them on the field though....
I think our main problem is punishing these entitled highschool kids when they get to college and think they can continue acting like idiots.
Dig Roundtree's style, man. Khaki pants with Uga's on them.

I'm still surprised Duke was in his top 3. We knew he wasn't coming to Durham, but its still a nice change for once.
Gotta appreciate the little things.

We rarely get called for chop blocks. Do we really need to go through the whole chop block vs cut block thing again? Are you guys still not getting it?
I think it's a situation of what Richard Sherman does with the Seahawks. If you hold every play, the officials will never call it. If you chop block often, they'll rarely call it.

Honest question. Do you have any idea what a chop block is?
It's a cut block done while the defensive player is being blocked above the waist or has recently been blocked above the waist by an offensive player. The angle of the cut block also has an impact on whether it should be called or not. They're really the exact same block but it's a matter of angle, whether they're being blocked already, and timing.

A chop block is when a player is already engaged by one blocker high and another cut blocks him low. It has nothing to do with recently blocked or angle of the cut block. It is a fairly simple call to make. Here are some examples to help you understand better from our morally superior friends in Athens who you would think would never do such a thing.
