2018 College Football Thread: Local man buys some teenage champions a 4 for 4 (2 Viewers)

[gump]

That would be odd. 

Definitely but we’re in all new territory here...

 

[Tom Servo]

Clemson still on upset alert; now trailing 16-10 with 4:09 left in the 3rd. 

 

[Marmalade]

Crazy story line with Hurts playing to kill his redshirt at the same time.

Why would Hurts play?   What am I missing?  I guess he is done with CFB. 

 

[Marmalade]

Syracuse wow

 

[The Kansas Comet]

Syracuse goes up 10 after going for it on 4th and goal.  12:58 left

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Syracuse acts like they want to win this game.

 

[Capella]

Why would Hurts play?   What am I missing?  I guess he is done with CFB. 

He’s got a chance to win a third ring, knows he isn’t a pro qb (I assume) and Bama surely dropped a giant bag. Easy decision.

He graduates in Dec, so transfers without penalty to start somewhere next year in the P5.  He's also going to get a lot of playing time vs 1's (and who knows may be needed during a Champ run)...and is working with a true QB Coach (Enos) for the first time. He looks much better this year throwing than LY.  One year at a big program with some success and go pro.  

If you are him and family, what's better for his development?

You think he's an NFL QB?

 

[Slapdash]

Kentucky +1 at home v SoCAR?

Cats look very good this year so far.  Not optimistic about breaking the losing skid to them.

 

[Capella]

Why is Syracuse not getting the clock stopped here. 

 

[Marmalade]

Clemson drops in the polls this week regardless right? 

 

[Marmalade]

Why is Syracuse not getting the clock stopped here. 

Because they are really bad, and have poor coaching? 

 

[Capella]

Wow Syracuse that was just insane. What in the world. 

 

[Marmalade]

Syracuse let 2 minutes run off the clock and didn't use a single timeout! WTF?!    

 

[whoknew]

Terrible mistake by SYR not to use its timeouts.

 

[ClownCausedChaos2]

Evil will always triumph, because good is dumb.

 

[Capella]

If you weren’t watching Syracuse let a full minute go off the clock even though they had 3 timeouts. 

Maybe they aren’t used to playing in big games? @Nipsey

 

[Marmalade]

Terrible mistake by SYR not to use its timeouts.

mistake?   How does a whole coaching staff allow that to happen?    

"Hey coach we have three timeouts we should call them to 1. rest our defense.  2.  Save some time for a comeback."   

 

[Capella]

Clemson drops in the polls this week regardless right? 

I don’t think we need to see Alabama beat them again, but we probably will. This doesn’t seem as good as previous squads. 

 

[Marmalade]

How in the world is that QB not more aware?  How is that right tackle still on the field?  

 

[ClownCausedChaos2]

They didn't call a TO after the penalty??  

 

[Capella]

They didn't call a TO after the penalty??  

Coach is saving the TOs to savor them, I guess. 

 

[whoknew]

Texas Tech with a nice little comeback going.

 

[Marmalade]

They didn't call a TO after the penalty??  

How is coaching D1?/

 

[Capella]

Syracuse ends the game with two timeouts. 

If that guy was any less of a coach that would be fireable. 

 

[ClownCausedChaos2]

Ok, call those two timeouts NOW!

 

[East Coast Bias]

Do they rush the field every game?

 

[gump]

You think he's an NFL QB?

He!! no, but that’s The Dream.

 

[Capella]

Do they rush the field every game?

Yes

 

[Marmalade]

Have to watch CFB to see hard-hitting sacks anymore.   That sack against Syracuse would have been ten flags thrown and the possibility of $$$ fines. 

 

[Doctor Detroit]

You know your team has hit rock bottom when Pam Ward is doing play by play for your game. 

 

[bigmarc27]

I don’t think we need to see Alabama beat them again, but we probably will. This doesn’t seem as good as previous squads. 

Let’s see what happens with Lawrence getting starter reps moving forward. He should be back, I’m willing to bet he’ll looks pretty good come December if we’re still playing for something at that point. 

Maybe today we’ll teach the coaches to feed Etienne until he can’t walk. 

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Kyler Murray is better than I ever could have imagined. I knew he was mobile and had a big arm, but he also has a great deep ball and is pretty accurate. He’s fun to watch. 

 

[General Malaise]

Dude....

That Hollywood kid can flat fly.  My god....

 

[General Malaise]

I don't wish Willie Taggart ill will or anything, but watching his team play today, I sure don't miss him.  This looks like the horrendous Braxton Burmeister days of '17.  Gross.

They are playing awful (Michigan, that is).

Thankfully, the offense has awoken. 17-7 now.

I’m just glad this game was mentioned, I was going to slit my wrists if I had to keep watching Louisville and FSU.

thoughts on those uniforms today?

i'm loving them. are they throwbacks?

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Just alternative jerseys. I love them. 

OU can’t get any pressure on the QB and teams are gonna just try to keep possession, and hope they can stop OU at some point. Texas is not an ideal matchup.

This is worse than the ND game and I didn't think that was possible

 

[JaxBill]

Gators about to get blown out.

Squad came through at the end. 

 

[Marmalade]

Man, that QB from Baylor just got scorpioned! 

 

[OU#1]

Boomer!!!

 

[The Commish]

What is that?  50 penalties?

 

[whoknew]

That was not fun to watch. But we will take it.
