OK any of you t-town denizens....

…what’s the weather like?

by kleph on Nov 29, 2008 11:56 AM CST reply actions   0 recs

Can anyone clarify the Horse Collar rule for me?

Are they actually enforcing it? I’ve been watching the first 20 minutes of the Georgia-Tech game and have seen three blatant horse collar tackles and none of them have been called.

by rugman11 on Nov 29, 2008 12:05 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

No...

…I don’t think the officials even know it.

by Todd on Nov 29, 2008 12:35 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

I agree.

It’s been all over the place, and the officials, players, announcers, no one is even acting like it’s happening. From what I’ve seen, players aren’t even calling for the flag…

watching the ucla/asu game from the nosebleeds last night...

…i saw two blatant ones go by without a blink from the refs. it’s not that hard a call to make – you can see the effect on the runner plainly, just like a facemask penalty. my guess is they are gonna wait till someone gets their leg shattered in two before they start calling it again.

Wish we had a TD

But that was one of the best drives of the season. Auburn’s D will be feeling that in the 3rd and 4th quarter. If we can get a 3-and-out on this next drive, they may be feeling it sooner.

I would feel better with at least one more score before half...

but I feel pretty good right now. keep running the ball to the right side and then mix it up when they compensate. NO MORE TOSS SWEEPS… Auburn is too fast for us to get the corner. RIGHT AT THEM!!!! we need to get ready for more no huddle. it confused us there at the end and it showed but I like it when kodi burns has to throw.

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!! Please score 50 more in the 2nd half. Come out of half and score and we drive the first nail in the coffin.

Most of their passes are to the inside? Also, they are clearly loading up on the left side. We need to try to stretch the field. The seam is open all day, esp when they cheat the safeties.

But OU looks a helluva lot better. 45-35 only carries so much currency. I mean UT got did by the team that lost to Baylor (maybe) and got shelled by OU. Plus, the Mizzou game that they put so much currency in is NOT that impressive (if ever). I mean KU can do it. AND, I’ll take OU’s top OOC games, thank you.
