Does not have to be crown when the player is defenseless.

Learn the rules.
That call is corrupt as shite. That was 100% targeting every single time.
I can't see how that previous pass interference could be on the defender. It's probably a no-call but if you called it it would have to be against the receiver. Defender did nothing other than being shoved.

Contracts would solve a lot of issues including this one.

But the college football we all grew up with is gone. Fans are noticing. I think it will be a slow slide down to irrelevancy over the next few decades.

Kids nowadays don't even care much about it. They are just as likely to follow e-sports or soccer.

Hate to break up your two-man circle jerk, but owho ran into a fricking buzz saw this season and finished 13th with a losing season. Yeah we lost tonight. You spent most of the 2024 season losing.


There is no doubt that OU was a terrible team this year. This was the worst team since the John Blake years.

The thing is we own up to it.

But this year was an anomaly compared to the previous 25 years.

I’d be worried if we had a quality team that shite the bed in our first SEC year but we know that this OU team would get its arse kicked by most Big 12 teams too.

If this abomination of an offense can put up a couple of wins against a far tougher than average SEC schedule, we’ll be perfectly fine if we can produce teams that in any way resemble those that Stoops had year in and year out.

He lived on out recruiting every team save Texas in the big 12 and nobody knowing how to play defense there, but he usually got blown out in the playoffs.




Curious what you would say about a defense that gives up 28 points in 18 minutes to a Riley offense?

Just a hypothetical of course.

Good call.
quote:

#6 almost screwed up royally on the kick off. He just caught it and casually dropped it showboating. Another USC player had to run over and down it then the refs blew it dead.



I noticed that and the commenters completely missed it.

I don't know if I would call it showboating but it was certainly careless.

That said, the play is supposed to be blown dead as soon as the returner gives himself up. (He doesn't have to take a knee. Even a movement that resembles a person taking a knee will cause the play to be blown dead. Clearly the official didn't interpret the returner's actions as giving himself up.

Is this SEC quality football? idk what I'm watching here


No but you guys spent decades playing what couldn’t even be considered Big 12 quality football.
quote:

Arnold (QB) Sharp (TE) Walker (CB) Anderson (WR) Farooq (WR) Hester (WR) Anthony (WR) Thompson (WR) McCullough (LB/Cheetah)


One guy in that list was a decent player who wasn’t injured all year.

Other schools have training tables for all of those WR who couldn’t stay on the field.

Auburn is a good place for an overrated QB who has no feel for the game.

You would hit that ina split second.
My question is since OU got fined twice for Saturday’s game (but both at the $100k rate), will the next offense be $250k or $500k?
quote:

Wonder why….hmm.


I know you want to say it is all about the SEC but this season is all about poor QB play, poor offensive line play, and our top 5 receivers being out pretty much all year.

Our offense was pretty poor in all games. We would be struggling in the Big 12.

quote:

The next progression would be ineligible receiver down field ( if covered up. He was not ) which is thrown at snap of ball when he leaves LOS.


I don’t think that part is correct. Ineligible receiver downfield wouldn’t be called until the ball is thrown. Offensive linemen can move forward on a running play.


Consider a QB scramble where he throws late. That often ends up as an ineligible man downfield because of the timing and the lineman assume the QB is running. When the QB ends up scrambling that is never a penalty.
quote:

f it's an illegal formation, the flag is thrown as the ball is snapped. Not long after the play starts. If it's illegal touching, the flag is thrown after the receiver touches the ball, not before. The penalty was also called personally on #2, Ryan Williams.


First, it wasn’t illegal formation. OP is wrong. They had seven on the LOS. Williams wasn’t covered so he is eligible. In that formation the TE is not eligible. Not sure about the tackle on the left. He might be eligible if he reported himself eligible but in either case if he stays and blocks it isn’t a penalty. (Edit: Others have pointed out that declaring yourself eligible is not required in college. Not material as the tackle stayed in and blocked.)


All that said, if Williams had been covered the flag was thrown at the right time. Can’t throw that flag before the ball is thrown. As soon as the ball is thrown (which is roughly when the flag was thrown) it is ineligible man downfield so the flag could be thrown immediately. Once Williams was the first to touch, it becomes illegal touching.

So bad call because Williams wasn’t covered but there is nothing at all fishy about when the flag was thrown.


I want to be clear because some might misinterpret what I said. What I mentioned about ineligible downfield and illegal touching would only apply if the WR was covered which it appears the official thought was the case. It was a bad call but if you accept that initial mistake there isn’t a question about the timing of that flag being thrown.
So on that penalty, it was definitely the wrong call and should have been a TD, but there was nothing fishy about the timing of the flag being thrown.

The official incorrectly thought the WR was covered. That would mean more than 7 on the LOS but that isn’t itself a penalty. He threw the flag once the ball was thrown because Williams was now an ineligible receiver downfield. Once Williams was the first to touch the ball that became illegal touching.

If the official was correct (he wasn’t) then the flag was thrown at the right time - after the pass but before touching.

So really bad call but not some conspiracy.

This is the one we play after extra points. Lots of words for it so that should make you happy. Maybe you’ll even hear it enough to learn the words.
