Texas A&M lost? when did this happen? lol

according to aggy, no they were hosed by the refs.

Sumlin can’t say it but it was obvious from the first play of the game that the fix was in by the NCAA and SEC that Texas A&M would not be allowed to win this game. The referees purposely missed multiple calls against Auburn’s defense to give them every advantage possible. First play of the game blatant pass interference on Evans no call. Last drive before the obvious horse collar tackle another blatant pass interference in the end zone on Evans and he still almost caught the ball. This has been happening every game. The NCAA is pissed they couldn’t punish Manziel more so they are making sure that he is not in the running for another Heisman. I don’t mind getting beat if everything is on the up and up but it is pretty obvious that wasn’t the case in this game.

nvm the ref defending manziel and preventing him from talking so he didn't throw a flag.

and i think the halo rule is still a thing....

[Yaboosh]

Why would they let us run that play.

 

[squicken]

Jimbo's offense. Always an issue

 

[MIMIC]

Just got home from the game:

This is the best the offense has looked all season, they had the ball for 22 of the 30 minutes in the 2nd half, impressive.
Braxton seems to be back to his old self and the play calling was great.
Carlos Hyde is a beast

The defense played shit the 2nd half, and was embarrassing to watch a bad iowa offense have their way with them. Luckily they stepped it up a bit in the 2nd.

That targeting call was the biggest load of shit I have ever seen. If guys are going to get ejected to hit their shoulder against someone else shoulder then we really need to look at the rule again.

On to the next one though, lets make it 20-0

Nah

I knew he was gone as soon as it happened.

 

[Pimpwerx]

LOL! Benjamin did something miraculous for nothing. That was a crazy good catch. PEACE.

 

[Meier]

WTF! Why in the world did they let the play fully happen before calling the delay? That's fucking crazy.

 

[mre]

I think the interfering with a player's ability to catch a kick is only called if they don't, in fact, catch the kick. It was a controversial call in the Bama-ND game last year.

 

[Karl2177]

I hope we don't score a single point this game. That way when the team gets back to Ames, we can hang Messingham by the testicles from the Campanile.

 

[devildog820]

Musberger just dropped a Johnny Unitas reference regarding crowd noise. Um, what?

 

[MIMIC]

The crowd at the Clemson-Florida St game is ELECTRIC. I love it

 

[devildog820]

I think they blew the whistle, it was just too loud.

Spoiler

I remember when the Swamp was like that.

 

[bucknuticus]

The shit theyre doing ont he video boards seems like it should be illegal somehow

 

[Pimpwerx]

Just read the rules. Halo rule was changed to offer a 1yd buffer IN FRONT of the returner. No wonder guys have been crowding the returners. They've been doing it from the sides. Seems pretty pointless, but whatever. PEACE.

 

[Enfinit]

FSU is Clemsoning right now.

 

[Monroeski]

Only bad thing that has happened this entire weekend in Morgantown: been waiting 2.5 hours for a cab at our hotel. Luckily we've run into some Tech fans smoking some meat on the patio to pass the time. WVU fans continue to be unbelievably nice.

 

[timetokill]

Marqise Lee out for the rest of the game with a left knee injury.

Nightmare season for him.

 

[squicken]

A lot of arm but seems to be pretty erratic

 

[Randolph Freelander]

The crowd at the Clemson-Florida St game is ELECTRIC. I love it

Clemson has the best home crowd in the ACC, in my opinion.

 

[Yaboosh]

Clemson has the best home crowd in the ACC, in my opinion.

That is easy, could be entire country.

 

[Pimpwerx]

The shit theyre doing ont he video boards seems like it should be illegal somehow

What are they doing? PEACE.

 

[devildog820]

Just read (because I can't let it go) that we are only next year returning to having a full roster of 85 players. Hasn't been full since 2010. Awesome.

 

[impirius]

It makes the press box camera angle look like the TV's color correction is going haywire. The field just flashes

 

[mcgruber]

most ACC schools would be pumped for a top 5 matchup

Spoiler

except miami...

 

[cr_blah_blah]

LSU with some soft ass defense

 

[JJDinomite]

What's up with Clemson's apathetic attempt at Jump Around?

 

[bucknuticus]

What are they doing? PEACE.

Theyre like flashing tons of different colors super quickly on every board that can show video

Haha, that is fantastic in the worst ways. I love butthurt sports fans.

 

[Lonestar]

Saw that hold too, Nicki. You tell em what's what

Maybe they just have a stuck pixel.

 

[devildog820]

LSU with some soft ass defense

All their fans were complaining about it when I was there last week. I assured them our offense would take it easy on them.

Just got an awesome survey pop-up for a healthcare ad. On GAF.

 

[MrJames]

Yep, Muschamp made the mistake of letting everyone go that didn't want to be a part of the program. Most of the last class Meyer brought in left leaving Florida with around 55-60 scholarship players.

 

[Yaboosh]

Losing the field position battle right now, defense won't hold up forever. Need to move the ball.

 

[mre]

Maybe they just have a stuck pixel.

:jnc

Not sure what is my favorite comment from this week's thread. It's either this one or Bert's comment about Manziel dying after a cock fight gone wrong.

 

[Tamanon]

Dagger.

 

[Incognito]

Oh yeah!

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Most ACC schools could only dream. But Virginia Tech and FSU crowds represent themselves well.

On the flipside, I tuned in late to the North Carolina/Miami game the other night in Chapel Hill when Miami was driving and Carolina was leading. That crowd was dead.

 

[Edgeward]

That was pathetic D by Clemson

 

[Yaboosh]

Holy fucking shit Rashad. I love you.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Clempsoning like crazy on that play

 

[mre]

I thought shhshing the crowd was un-sportsman like?

 

[Meier]

Rashad Greene is sooooooo good.

 

[The_Inquisitor]

God Clemson is so slow.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Losing the field position battle right now, defense won't hold up forever. Need to move the ball.

That good enough for you?

 

[Enfinit]

Rashad Greene with that throwback Deion Sanders trash talk to the Clemson crowd.

Best moment of the night so far.

 

[devildog820]

Yep, Muschamp made the mistake of letting everyone go that didn't want to be a part of the program. Most of the last class Meyer brought in left leaving Florida with around 55-60 scholarship players.

And kicked off the rest. To be clear, wasn't blaming Will.

 

[Yaboosh]

So good.

 

[DominoKid]

Clemson is still Clemson

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Wow, Miami could conceivably move up to near top 5, but they don't look like a top 5 team.
