For those who apparently didn't realize, it's going to take Leach a while to get Wazzu to be a consistent 7-5 team
In case anyone was wondering, PAC 12 refs are still horrendous
Yeah, but super duper coach Mcsparkles will have the mighty lambs playing for the NC this year!

Not sure if anyone caught this last night....HILARIOUS, dude had an easy TD on a muffed punt but decided to run it 50 yards backwards instead:

Even funnier to me was that the other team put so much effort into stopping him. :lol:

The announcer says that it would have been a safety had he not been tackled... wasn't it a dead ball already? The refs didn't blow it dead, but then spotted the ball at the 7... hmmm

Should not have been a dead ball because it was a fumble....the ball hit the punt returner and the punting team recovered....if they spotted the ball at the 7, the refs totally botched that call as well
I believe this is incorrect. You cannot advance a muffed punt. The refs placed the ball at the spot where the ball was recovered. It was the right call.

Even looked it up myself...not that I doubted the all knowing Sackman, but certainly are right...can advance if they catch and fumble it, but not a muffed punt
Kind of a stupid rule now that I actually know it.....should be no different than any other fumble
