Between Dabo's bizarre out of no where rant, the official yesterday fist bumping Collins on the way off the field at half(ran over to him and fist bumped him on the way off the field), and the horrendous job the official involved in the Pickens issue was in not throwing a flag for defensive holding or being on top of breaking them up before it turned more violent.

The defender had Pickens by the jersey and drug him out of bounds, then once out of bounds did not let go, then hit Pickens in the throat twice, while the official stood there. As far as I am concerned, there is only so much a player should have to put up with if the official is too chicken shite to break it up and at some point, it's simple self defense. Until the very end, I don't know how Pickens çould have tried to walk away basically you are fighting in a phone booth in that situation...

On another note, there was a play in the 3rd qtr last night where two LSU players targeted the same wr, clear launch, head snap, and nothing, no review, no penalty, even the commentators noted it...

My only question to Pickens is why were you throwing punches at dudes helmet, that is just dumb. Cup check the mfer with you knee and you are playing the entire game this weekend.

I laugh every time when he grabs the corner by the face mask and throws him head-first into the wall.

There's something really weird about the way Pickens was fighting back. ALmost like he knew it was going to be a highlight and a gif and so he actually hammed it up for the cameras.

The punch and the forearm to the helmet even looked like he pulled back on them before contact so he didn't hurt his hand/ forearm, and what is throwing someing into a foam padded wall suppose to do?

shite looked like WWE fake wrestling.

Its too bad the Tech player was black. Otherwise, he could have claimed a racial meanie word was used, and gotten out of this mess.

They missed the most blatant targeting on Prather Hudson on the on side kick too. Worst one I have seen all year.

Then in the pile up, some GT player ripped Walter Grants helmet off.

ACC is a joke

I saw that as well. No protection for the defenseless player there

I didn’t see the fist bump.

Dabo is playing an unranked team in his Conference Championship .

They both should have been ejected or neither should have been ejected.

These things are some of the trivial costs we pay for the privilege of playing Ga Tech. They're a G5 level program with nothing to lose, so sure, they'll start a few fights and play dirty. Now that the chop block king is gone, we can't deny the bugs some new techniques to ding UGA's season.

Damaging Georgia's chances in the SEC championship or making the playoffs is as good as winning the ACC for tech; better really since all they care about is seeing Georgia lose. And we get that lovely message board smack talk for another year, so it's worth it no matter the cost. 52-7, baby!!!!!

Is this guy for real or he just trolling everybody?

Edit: I see now it’s a fake...

I bet he'd like to throw me up against the wall and try to make out with me or something.

Stalkers don't stalk people they hate. They stalk people that they're in love/obsessed with but who don't return their affection

I saw a punch to the back of Kindleys helmet also. Looked like the ref grabbed the guy and pulled him off and didn’t call anything?????? Weird shite during that game.

Pickens got suckered into retaliating and getting ejected. If that's a win, we don't need to win any more of those.

Nobody whipped GT’s arse better than GA. Not even Clemson.

52-7.

Suck it nerds. Your coach is a dildo.
