He had to throw him down so delicately due to the refs throwing a flag every 5 seconds

Or, the MSU defenders should have stopped leading with their helmets. Yes, his slide is late (as is allowed by the rules). But the defenders need to stop trying to kick the guy out of the game and just wrap him up.

All good, if you weren’t a fan it’s better for your health and enjoyment of football to have not watched that.

It was 4th down when the QB slides the play is over. Because he was short the hit that came after was called a late hit with targeting and out of frustration for another BS call becuase this QB slides like a moron a player threw a helmet. Upon review it obv wasn’t targeting but the late hit 15yd and the helmet throw 15yd still stood

Relax man you got the W

Welp, lets see if TCU is improved at all this year.

That was never why those penalties got called this game (except once) they were all for late hits not helmet to helmet or lead in with the helmet. The guys just slides insanely late and into defenders already coming in at him. It’s a known thing he does, the coaches talked about it all week and one of the only way he can get yards.

Lol really dumb penalties from TCU

Yeah, I’m guessing I missed a good portion of the explanation when I was channel flipping. I will rewatch it tomorrow night.

On to TCU vs Stanford. Hopefully TCU bet will cover better than Sparty bet.

The first drive of this game has been an adventure. TCU trying to outdo CU on playing stupid

Yeah I lost a lot of money on that game. Gambling fund doesn’t like taking early season hits like that

What a bizarre start to a game. Both teams looked horrible and good!!

Yeah I don’t have to worry about that. My betting units are small. Wife doesn’t care for gambling and I am not willing to bet against her.

 

[Acylum]

Worst part is those late slides led to 3 MSU turnovers.

 

[JP4CY]

TCU is fast.

 

[CYphyllis]

TCU is fast.

That to me feels like a yearly given, kind of the same thing with Baylor. They both always seem to have some ridiculous athletes on the outside, inside the hashes varies wildly from year to year though.

 

[Ankency]

Apparently Offensive Pass Interference is no longer a penalty

 

[JP4CY]

Sconnie o line is bad.

 

[alarson]

Fake!

 

[JP4CY]

Beaut of a fake

 

[cyclones500]

Just when I was gonna say WMU is playing too conservatively, it pulls off the fake FG.

 

[NWICY]

Relax man you got the W

LOL, just wait for all the stupidity that will show up in the game thread tomorrow.

The 'ol Paul Rhoads move.
