Other Games 11/2 - 11/6

Arizona takes a 3-0 lead over Cal. Third quarter in the PAC 12’s most exciting game of the week so far.
 
Go Purdue
Love when a guy makes a 4th Down Interception that actually costs his team yards and celebrates like crazy
Knock it down, get more yards, but oh well, let's go
 
The Announcers said that the QB WISELY threw the ball away? WRONG
The QB should have just fell down and took the sack and let the clock run
 
Well he if he didn't rip it away after the guy was on the ground it would have been a touchdown so I say he made a good play.
But, if your going to the ground, your number one task is to make sure the WR does not catch it, and to knock it down. If you catch it, or juggle it, or somehow allow the WR to rip it out of your hands, it could be a catastrophe. It is even more dramatically dumb on longer passes that they catch and fall to the ground, giving up a lot of yards
 
Yikes that Tulsa QB is never gonna forget that **** up.

The announcers were ripping him but I thought he slipped.

Why the hell don't teams line up under center under 4th and 1? And what happened to the QB sneak? That was the most effective short yardage play ever. Also, I thought the FB broke the plane before the ball came out on the 4th down run.

Cincy hangs on to beat mighty Tulsa by 1 score.

All logic says you are right.

I still want the guy to intercept the ball.

I want my defenders to always be thinking take the ball away from the other team. I don't want them thinking about it's 4th down or field position or anything else, just get me the ball and hold on to it.

This isn't any different than the question about a DB intercepting the ball on a throw deep downfield on third down. Sometimes that results in better than a punt for the offense but I still want him catching it. If he catches it the ball is ours. That is the mentality I want from my players.

I can respect that thinking, just wonder about game awareness, and you answered it in a very logical way
 
Kirk Herbstreit said on Gameday that there was no way that Sparty was going to lose to Purdue .. because there was so much chatter in the media that it was a "trap game" and Mel would have his team ready to play. Oh well ... Suckeyes are only so smart.
