Ok the tigernet majority may crucify me for this, but I though Battle's "punch" was acceptable. did you see them shove tajh, sammy, and our longsnapper to the ground? they were asking for it all night! I know all you old guys on this board say "never stop to their level" but come on! state had way more dirty plays that didnt get called. yeah im an a**HOLE. I dont care what you think

You think that warrants an uppercut on somebody HALF the guy's size? Really?

you do something to one of his teammates on the next play. While that guy is waiting on his balls to drop again, you let his teammates know why it happened.

and after we've won? I dont mind our guys being tough and nasty. But being a "thug" is something they do in Athens and that dirt hole capital of ours. I dont condone that behavior at all. Its not acceptable and for him, its always one step forward, two steps back. He gets his chance and he f***'s it up.

He had played well during the game but that stunt likely keeps him off the field for at least a couple games. Things like that do not make me want to stand up and say "that guy represents me".

if only because it's an auto dq for the next game as well.
trust is a two way street. coaches have to trust players. let him lose his kewl in the fsu game & cost cu field position and take away needed depth on the oline for that game.
nothing wrong with opening a can of whoopass within the rules.
way ####### stupid at that moment.

Yeah I see where you are coming from, but it happens. The way I look at it, is that we have seen worse from athletes (see Ron Artest and Lagarrette Blount)

He's playing a violent game that requires him to be violent. I don't condone what he did, but you also have to understand the passion for it. We as fans look at it, and say "what a stupid mistake". But, you also have to look at it from the perspective from these guys competing every day. Dumb mistake, yes. But, not a loose cannon.

no, I cant say Ive done something stupid while in my 20's. Im not saying Im perfect and Im not saying I didnt like his intensity, but in front of a national audience on a network that already hates our guts, having someone punch a "defenseless" player isnt a good thing. I played football and know how it is in games. But I dont punch my boss when he's been riding my a** all day.

Im a reasonable person so I see where you are coming from, but come on, people are different. it happened, hopefully he learns his lesson and learns to channel that intensity towards a positive direction. like with his shoulder pads and helmet, ok maybe not his helmet that would be a targeting foul lol

as the equivalent of playing a violent game against a competitor? Not sure how you can relate football to everyday work, but apples and oranges. Not a smart move by Battle, but just not a good example.
