Right, and the balls were caught past the LOS. They were close, but past the LOS.It's where the receiver is, not the blocker.
Refs clearly weren’t paying attention to the blue line. I mean, it’s right there on the field. How can they miss it?Right, and the balls were caught past the LOS. They were close, but past the LOS.
Receivers were crossing the field and well past the line, and pretty sure HCPrime and the coaches irate on the sidelines, even complaining about it after the game, as well as the commentators, and coach Barnett, know what the rule is.It's where the receiver is, not the blocker.
You act like you’re still on that sideWhen they went up 13 and 0 then got stuffed 2 or 3 times in a row, it was so nice knowing that they had ****ed up by not scoring enough despite our mistakes cause we had the talent to come back. I've been on the other side of that feeling enough times in the last 2 decades.
Bucky gave that guy a little shove at the end of the video.
Clemson D looks legit to me. BYU is tough as nails and well coached. No stars though. Boise State is one dimensional and might play in the worst conference in D1Ridiculous. Clemsons D would be a problem for us. Byu destroyed Kansas St who bullied us. Boise? Would be a tough game.
So DOOM?Ridiculous. Clemsons D would be a problem for us. Byu destroyed Kansas St who bullied us. Boise? Would be a tough game.
I saw this on a podcast this morning (not sure if it is valid) but Horn's injury was due to a tortilla, slipped on it. Again I didn't see it, but if true, if a player is injured because of debris thrown on the field, the home team needs to be penalized. It is a ridiculous thing to do, throw food onto the playing field.The tortilla tradition is cool, but not when it is just happening the entire game. I'm surprised the conference has let that continue

You’re telling me!Lard is slippery!
Adrenaline can do that to you, especially if your leg is numb.Watched the WOM game highlights and Jimmy was jumping around at the end of the game. Didn’t appear to be an injury to the legs
Yeah, I’m pretty sure it was a banana peel.Im not sure I'm buying that.
Jimmy looked happy and healthy in the locker room after the victory (see the very end of Well off Media's game post, which is excellent, by the way).Watched the WOM game highlights and Jimmy was jumping around at the end of the game. Didn’t appear to be an injury to the legs
Username kind of checks out.Corn tortillas are the OG tortilla. But flour tortillas are better for everything except street style tacos. /discussion.
That would be wrong. Very wrong. As would making a quesadilla with corn tortillas.Are you assholes eating green chili with corn tortillas?
Migas. I counter you migas. And honestly taquitos, too.Corn tortillas are the OG tortilla. But flour tortillas are better for everything except street style tacos. /discussion.
Enchiladas, tostadas, huevos rancherosThat would be wrong. Very wrong. As would making a quesadilla with corn tortillas.

The fact is that both are useful for different purposes. It’s like football. It is impossible to argue whether offense or defense is more valuable. You just need both.
No, sure, no.Enchiladas, tostadas, huevos rancheros
#confusedNo, sure, no.
*fewerpeople are going to think less of you even more.
It was AWFUL, and it wasn't for "behind the line." They were picking downfield. Most of their big plays in the first quarter were entirely due to illegal pick plays allowing their receivers to be running free and clear across the field.
Even HCPrime discussed it in his post-gamer. He was ticked off about it, too.
Not sure why they went away from that, as it was never called as a penalty. But HCPrime said that DC changed our coverage to deal with the issue. I think it was more nuanced then just going to Zone. The change was impressive, to me.
You said a few.A few other observations:
TT's QB came out white hot and their early play calling had the D off-balance converting a few key plays--pick or no pick. That all cooled as CU's pressure got home with TT's run game shut down--then TT had some line penalties, we got sacks/TFL, and their QB came crashing back down to earth. The defense ended up getting TT's O in much better downs and distances, their QB rattled, and then forcing FGs and next punts.
Out of the gate our our special teams (return yards, shanked punt...) and O were poor. Our offense started slow then the correct change at C, which maybe took them/SS a series or two to adjust. The cool thing was the players never panicked, listened to the coaching/each other, and rather quickly overcame that ugly 1st Q. IMO, midway through the 2nd Q TT's D appeared gassed to me--began to look a step-slower. Not just their Dline, but the back-end too--nice to have so many fast dangerous WRs. Similarly, TT's QB and Oline grew tired, confused, or rattled by the relentless D pressure. CU's talent, speed, depth and coaching really showed through. Depth was huge.
The running stats are not anything great, however CU used it well w/ short passes in the 2nd Q when we scored and brought the early skewed TOP to a much closer margin by halftime. This kept our offense on the field further tiring TT's thin defense (their top LB had like 8-10 tackles in the 1st half). The offense burning time allowed our D to freshen and make more adjustments. Effectively running and ball control is not something CUs' O is great at, however I was impressed they sort of went to it in the 2nd Q--not just RBs but SS too. IMO, the points (only 10) really invigorated the D turning the early tide of the game and then our D finally just dominating.
The sequences above demonstrated to me that this coaching staff is much better and cooperative than last year. Last year, I felt we would have kept running O tempo and the D would not have had time to make significant adjustments or get a rest. I think this staff has found the value of sometimes slowing things down.
I somewhat agree with the comments about CU not properly icing the game up 14 points, however they had short fields and tried going for daggers. TT's D was really gassed but CU flailed in hitting attempted big plays--which maybe left a bad look, where it could have been a great look. Some indicate this is TH/SS padding stats, however it could be Prime/staff smelling blood wanting a 21-28 point destructive road win putting doubters/pollsters on notice. Giving the CFB Committee a real smell/eye test will be in play. Still an impressive road win, however if this approach worked, perhaps CU gets a 4-7 spot jump in the polls exhibiting utter domination after an ugly 1st Q where they properly adjusted on the fly.
