Costal Carolina is just disappointed that it is not Alabama in the field with them

Didn't see the first TD, but they pretty well marched right down the field on the second drive.
Kept going away from run. Didn’t defend the QB run. LA’s desire to go away from what was working on O and their lack of adjustments on D kept this close. OC and DC have a lot to answer for, especially had they lost.
Too bad this game didn’t happen on 12/5, not to mention CCG. CC could have two loses at this point.
Anyone else hoping Liberty smokes Coastal?
Reading pundits say they were "more deserving" than us makes me want to see some, "no, they aren't"

I need Coastal, Cincy, and Indiana to lose by a lot.
Normally I cheer for the Cinderella type teams, but the national media and commissioners of these conferences constantly berating Iowa State's ranking has turned me off. I wanted Louisiana to win for us, but aside from us winning against Oregon, I want Cincy and Coastal to get absolutely steamrolled. Sorry Bearcats and Chanticleers, nothing against you until the whining I've heard the last month and half.
Liberty QB looked a bit like Purdy in the CCG there. Could have run or dumped off for 4-5 yards, instead gets greedy, throws a pick.
Another example of how this should not be an ejection if the earlier facemask/helmet ripped off isn't.
I don't like it, but by rule, this is exactly like the Isheem Young play. The receiver is going down from a tackle, and the defender initiates contact with the shoulder.
(Small chance they say it was not "forceful" but I doubt it)
Edit: I was wrong.
Edit #2: This does raise the question -- if this wasn't targeting, why was Young's???

On this play, the receiver completely ducked his head. The flag should not have even been thrown. I never saw the Young play from the TV view (was at the game), so I can't comment on that one.
That was a horrible facemask. If we care about head and neck injuries, that's got to be more than a 15 yard penalty.
Imo even some of the ways Dlinemen get held should get more scrutiny. Bending someone back like that is a knee ligament waiting to get torn.
The problem is there is nothing associated with a knee like it is with a head injury. CTE and the effect concussions have on the brain is why the targeting thing is big. Not trying to sound callous, but the worst thing (aside from an Alex Smith situation where that could be life-threatening) a leg injury of any kind will be they can't play football again. But they can go on with life.
