We're working on it, but we've worn the same helmets the last two games
You west coast teams and needing fake juice to get up for a game.
Game of the Century #4!
They'll have to bring in some bigger screens or something so people will be able to see what is going on. From that distance, you won't get to see much at all.

Because Michigan barely survived their road test against the fearsome Connecticut Huskies.

Given that the crowd will be ~50% Vols, I'm okay with that suggestion. The loss of Hokie lives is an unfortunate but acceptable cost.

From that link, does anyone know if he was given a late hit/roughing the QB penalty for this:

Yeah, I think Missouri takes it. Probably going to be a would-be shootout, but Georgia's losses on offense will make it hard to keep up.

I think you're on to something here. I say we reschedule for Tennessee / Auburn and Notre Dame / Whoever, remove all safety equipment requirements from the race, replace the race fuel with rocket fuel, and kick off the entire event with a fireworks and bonfire show.
Who's in?

I'll bring the stuff to make s'mores.
So much for "protecting defenseless players."
I think we were all shocked he didn't get a roughing the passer call on it. This knocked the Maryland QB out of the game (no surprise). Definitely wasn't targeting though and despite Maryland sending it into the ACC for review after, they agreed that it was not.
The boots look is classic. Madison, FL is very country.
Who said anything about targeting? It's clearly not targeting. Like you said, it definitely was roughing the passer.
Bitching about the field is useless when both teams played on the same damn field.
It's possible that it had no impact on the field and that it was all just bad luck. Also possible that Tennessee plays on it regularly so uses different cleats at home than they do on the road. Teams used to do Friday walk-throughs in the home stadium, and sometimes they'd make adjustments in the types of cleats they used. Don't see teams doing that as often now.
I don't think you can blame miniscus tears and ACL tears on poor strength and conditioning. That's as dumb, or worse, as blaming the injuries on the condition of the turf and players getting their cleats caught in it.
To be fair, no Georgia coaches or players bitched about the field. The announcers and other commentators have plenty, though.
Just wait until they see that how to date rape letter.

It's not even just that. Michigan has been a pretty bad road team ATS for a decade. They were only -3 @Purdue last year.
Article and podcast on Texas and it's downslide
There are more QB misses than just RG3 and Manziel? :jnc

The announcer on the broadcast called it "textbook targeting" or something along those lines.
I think you could make a case that it wasn't RTP since he only takes 1 step after the throw rather than the required 2, but in this day and age, it would almost always be called so it was surprising that it wasn't.
I always heard that luck didn't like texas and Mack didn't want his feelings hurt by extending an offer he was unsure would result in a yes
Luck's numbers look pretty pedestrian as a Sophomore as well so no offer on Junior day doesn't seem entirely shocking. 116-229 for 1,529 yards and 7 TDs (INTs not listed). He obviously improved a lot after that but it looks like he committed to Stanford pretty early (mid Senior year). Looks like Texas took a small class that year (20) but no QB.. oof.
I don't think that was textbook targeting in the least, or a late hit. I don't know that the defender could have avoided the QB considering how quickly he hit after the ball was thrown. We're seeing the gif in slow motion, in real time it probably seemed much closer.
It's not like the QB was defenseless and was not involved in the play and got blindsided.
You're crazy. There was absolutely no attempt to pull up there; he was accelerating into him.

That's pretty funny. Caffienated soda isn't banned on campus, it just isn't sold on campus. The claim that is because there isn't demand is pretty funny though, because obviously there is.

Go Cougars. A win would start making me feel a lot better about the season, not that beating Georgia Tech is any massive feat.

Aggy still claims that their pre-game stuff isn't embarrassing to watch.
Michael Brewer, the guy who would have been starting for Tech this season if he hadn't been injured and who was so good as a true freshman that all but 1 of the scholarship players in front of him transferred, not only won multiple state championships at an Austin high school but also had a father AND grandfather that played QB at Texas. Texas took David Ash that year and offered Brewer a greyshirt.

Man, work is going so slow today! Off to Walla Walla tomorrow for wine tasting, driving to Pullman on Saturday, back to Walla Walla for Sunday/Monday wine tasting. I do this every year with my family and it's one of the weekends I look forward to the most! Can't wait!

Yeah, that is kinda pathetic. Not that Rutgers 2015 ooc schedule will be any better (to be fair our conference schedule is just ... stupidly tough).
09/05 - Norfolk State
09/12 - Washington State
09/26 - Kansas
11/21 - Army (at Bronx, NY)
It's still much better than our older ooc games under Schiano.
