  1. What Roach was supposed to do was not lower his head. He would probably not have been flagged if he did. It is just bad defense to lead with the top of your head for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is danger of injuring yourself. Actually injury to the tackler is why spearing was made illegal to begin with (c-spine or head injury). That is why for this version of "targeting" it doesn't matter what part of the offensive player you hit, nor does it matter if the offensive player is defenseless. That said, I do agree that potentially several OU defenders could have been flagged for targeting as well, but they weren't and those plays also did not seem to be reviewed. Really officiating is largely just shit these days regardless of conference, partly because refs probably expect replay to do all the heavy lifting.
  2. This is basically what they used to call spearing.
  3. The players are not particularly well coached. Special teams is pretty obvious. You can see defenders play with poor fundamentals repeatedly. Time to make offensive adjustments can be described as glacial.
  4. How many yards were lost on boneheaded punt or kick receiving today?
  5. This team has the uncanny ability to make every team look good though.
  6. No, Texas o-line will hold on 3 plays and be called for it 4 times.
  7. Mack should have been fired at the end of 2010.
  8. If we are reviewing... By season, not when played: 2003 - LSU because USC wasn't in the game 2006 - Florida, but using SEC logic this game is an Ohio State, Michigan rematch 2007 - LSU because WVU wasn't in the game. 2008 - Florida because Texas or USC wasn't in the game. 2009 - Alabama because Colt 2010 - Auburn. This is totally legitimate, mostly due to the genius of HC Chizik. Also Cam Newton wanted to go to Auburn for the academics. 2011 - Peak SEC 2012 - Alabama plays a patsy. Ohio State bowl ban because of tattoos, which were valued at > $120,000 (SEC limit per player). 2015 - Alabama. This one is legitimate. 2017 - Alabama. Four team single elimination is only semi-legitimate if you don't count results of the pseudo-early rounds in conference.
  9. This poll is bad and the voters should feel bad.
  10. Positive... lost to a decent LSU team instead of woeful Maryland. I don't like this being positive business.
  11. But sending blitzers from a quarter mile away is the basis of this defense.
  12. Hmmm. Do white nationalists ever use the flag of the Confederate States of America? I guess they use the one for the Army of Northern Virginia because they had a good win loss record, but they got their ass kicked in the playoffs by the Union.
  13. I just dropped into this thread to mention that Corsair > Mustang.
  14. That's it. Alabama is out of the playoffs.
  15. I often prefer the mute button to the guys they have on a lot games.
  16. Yes. You better believe a guy named Tathan knows where all the dildos are buried.
  17. Fifty percent of the time, it works every time.
  18. Fans on a noted Texas football forum said "he isn't very bright."
  19. I think you can drop Alabama to like 10th now.
