That's a good point about Jacoby Ford
Aug 24, 2006, 11:36 AM
|
|
Coaches have mentioned more than a couple times that Ford doesn't just have straight ahead speed, but he has "wiggle" as well.
Players like Peter Warrick and Torry Holt didn't touch us mainly on long bombs. The majority of their large gains came on returns or short passes that they turned into touchdowns by evasive running in conjunction with great speed.

mean less TV breaks, as they won't cut to a commericial after possession changes because they might miss some action.

1-point safety
Aug 24, 2006, 11:59 AM
|
|
I seem to remember a 1-point safety being scored in a very strange game (not one we were in) recently--say less than 5 years ago. Anyone else remember this? It was a call that no one had ever heard of and it generated a lot of fuss. Was it a 1-point safety or some other oddball scoring rule?

Georgia the last time we played in Athens. We threw a pick on the goal line ... the Georgia linebacker (I think) was moving laterally but OUTSIDE the goal line - he stepped into the enzone (fully) then was tackled. I was screaming "Safety, Safety" ... they called it a touchback.

1 point safety is only on extra point attempts.

Only on extra points
Aug 24, 2006, 1:05 PM
|
|
If the defense on an extra point somehow gets the ball or blocks the kick in the field of play and goes back into the endzone and gets tackled it is a 1 pt saftey.
