[wiseman3]

GA Tech already giving up, not going for it on 4th and 2 from the ND 48. Playing scared won't win you this game

And 2 plays later ND is already back to where they would have been if they failed on 4th down. So many moron coaches out there. Thankfully Fran isn't one of them!

They aren’t but they aren’t good

 

[Eric15]

Ga Tech punted on 4th and 2 on ND’s 49 yard line. Just too conservative for me.

 

[djorange1989]

Rutgers diving at knees in victory formation. Schiano really is a scumbag.

Yep he sucks. I hope they go 4-8

 

[HtownOrange]

UCLA-Rutgers is a long and bitter rivalry. Or potentially, in the minds of the TV executives that keep reshuffling the conferences.

UCLA leads this historic, long and bitter rivalry at 1-0. TV execs need a brain or the PAC teams bargained hard for games in Piscataway.

 

[GoSU96]

The color guy on the Miami game is an idiot. Duke beats SMU they will be ranked. If SU were to be sitting on one or two losses they will be ranked.

Dope

A couple weeks ago ESPN’s FPI had them favored in every game. Including ours.

I love these guys. It isn’t just us who sees this crap, can’t believe an opposing coach hasn’t taken a swing at Shitano yet

 

[690West]

HOW IN GOD’S NAME IS MICHIGAN #24 AT 4-2?!! JESUS, MARY AND JOSEPH!

Me too. I might not take a swing at him at first, but I'd be in his face and if it led to that, oh well.

something very interesting in Rutty-UCLA game. UCLA called a fair catch on onsides kick ground ball. I never knew the receiving team could do this. I wonder why receiving teams don’t call a fair catch on every onsides kick. Does this mean the player signaling for the fair catch can't get blown up by the kicking team? And does it mean the fair catch signaler is the only one who can receive the ball? Any rules experts or coaches out there who can shed some light on this rule? Does our team know this rule exists? It seems every team should be utilizing the fair catch on an onsides.

Ga Tech up 7-0

Ga Tech up 7-0

They look fantastic so far with this backup QB.

Sadly, his meat-read mush-head would not understand why you were in his face.

Im not sure I see how calling for a fair catch would be helpful. The player still has to secure the ball, and if they bobble it the defender can still grab it.

Cal up 7-3 early in the 2nd.

 

[orangenauburn]

I can’t believe I bet on Rutgers. I deserve to lose. Never again. I’m a knucklehead

I did too and ruined a nice +1645 parlay I would have hit

Except wake is terrible so losing to them is pretty awful

Bet on Shitano being a dick and going after someone’s knees, you will win every time

This rule came into play in the ECU-Army game. ECU went for an onsides kick and Army grabbed it and took it to the 15. But it was called back because the return man called for a fair catch.

How in hell did they not bring in a transfer QB? I know Harbaugh bailing late didn’t help things for them, but they are freaking Michigan. Kurtis Rourke wouldn’t have gone there if they pushed for him?

Couple of good losses today for Cuse. Might move up in the others receiving votes category during the bye week.
