Uh, that's not what I meant

I meant kids, teenagers in particular, tend to be embarrassed by that kind of stuff when their friends get hold of it. But I appreciate your righteous indignation on behalf of kids everywhere.

Alabama's case to be number one by the commitee. What is it?


Oct 30, 2017, 8:16 AM

I'm no expert, but I hear they don't just have to pass "the eye test". Why is their case better than the next 5 teams?

They have remained #1 even though we took #1 from them on national TV, but the next day they were back at #1. I think that says they don't have to be good all the time, just some of the time!!! It's like the kid that was born with a gold spoon in his mouth, he has never had to work hard for anything. But the average man has had to work hard for everything they have, and they better continue to work hard or they will lose what they have worked for....

Two comments.

First, CFP Committee first rankings is not really important in that there are 5 more to follow that are increasingly more important. The first may be imterestint to get a glymsp into their thinking, but even that can evolve as the end on the season evolves. It's not worth debating at this point. Tigers have to win. Simple, right?

Second, Lawrence injury is unsportsmanlike. Blocker who "fell" into Lawrence's ankle dove intentionally. It's obvious. It should of been flagged with a warning. If it happened again, ejection. I've little doubt that behavior is encouraged by the Tech coaches.

It’s amazing what you can see in replays that you miss when sitting in the stadium. In the first video you can see the Tech lineman turn his head and look right at the back of Dex’s legs and then dive on them. Would really love to know what the official said in the second video but you can see the offensive lineman nodding to him so he was definitely talking to the guy that hit Dex low from behind on that play. As expected Dabo took the high road and said it’s just football and Tech was playing within the rules. It may be within the rules but it still looks like an obvious attempt to injure another player. Just glad it sounds like it may not be severe. Gonna need Big Dex on Saturday. GO TIGERS!!!

My company's network filter will not let us access Facebook or Twitter or most photo-sharing sites, so I can never see the Twitter pics.

Of dirty blocking schemes. If I was a player and one of those illegal chop blocks ended my career ( not one that was unintentional ) I'd go after someone on a personal level.

Wisconsin over Miami?! Miami has actual wins


Oct 30, 2017, 2:55 PM

And they play in a real conference.

the 2nd video is a chop block plain and simple - Dex is


Oct 30, 2017, 3:23 PM

engaged with one guy and the other guy chops him. Not sure I necessarily see the ill intent on that one as Dex kind of fires away from the the guy chopping. Should have been a flag regardless.

the first one- just don't see it the way some of you guys are - maybe there is another angle but it looks like their guard gets rolled up by the tackle that Wilkins sheds(that guy disappears but one would assume he has to be falling on the legs of the guard who then falls on Dex)- I don't see anything there that would even warrant a flag-- just a pile of humanity domino-ed.

Oct 30, 2017, 3:56 PM

In the first one I see #71 clearly diving right in the back of Dex’s legs while Dex is being blocked by #55. 71 is looking right at Dex and not being blocked into him.

Its crud because on EVERY dive the center engages high and the guard dives into the legs of the DT. Its horse manure and should be called. If you don't believe me go back and watch every dive. On GT's first long run by Benson they did the same thing to Huggins, the center went high still engaged when the guard took his legs out. I know we have been complaining about it for years but its about time something is done about it. The bad part is that if the refs would call it GT would have no choice to change. GT's plan is to engage high getting the DT pushed back and releasing just in time for the guard to dart in and take the legs out but more than half the time the center is still engaged when the guard dives into the legs of the DT. I don't mind the triple option but when there is a chop block it has to be called and well when it comes to GT they rarely do.

I just watched the beginning of the game again, and you're absolutely right. The center engaged DL twice and both times, the left guard cracked down on his legs. CHOP blocks. It's NOT just football. Wish Dabo would send film to the conference and get them to stop this crap.
