OT: Michigan with the largest choke job of all time

[Froob]

What happened?

 

[shmessy]

What happened?

Oh the usual stupid college football ****.

A super excited punter got nervous and pissed his pants under pressure.

 

[nabwong]

Hey nab, where can I buy one of those unicorns?

I can send you some primo grade stuff that will make them appear in your bedroom or living room, or whichever room you prefer.

 

[slam]

Which is why, after watching Belichick football the past decade and a half, it's simply painful to watch the amateur crap. I get it, it's high energy, emotional, etc. but ..........give me the premium blend.

Let's be honest. We'd have a hard time watching an entire season of about 25 other NFL franchises at this point. That's how spoiled we are.

If I had one of those, I would never leave the house.

Amen.

Bye weekend was pure torture watching some of those slobfests.

That unicorn is actually in a commercial for an adjustable ergonomic toilet ...LOL

 

[Tunescribe]

What a colossal blunder by the punter. He may want to transfer to another school.

I feel sorry for the kid. He should've just fallen on the ball.

So if I buy one, I can have an unending supply of rainbow soft serve???

My entire life until this moment has been totally wasted!!!!!

I don't disagree, although I think there are plenty of NFL teams that qualify as the amateur crap too, and I have no doubt Alabama and Ohio State could give the Jaguars and the Raiders a good game.

The premium blend comes with a premium price tag, and it's certainly a polished product. But there's something soulless about following the NFL too, especially with Herr Goodell doing all he can to ruin the game. The salary cap forces lots of tough decisions and a lot of strange sights. Packers fans couldn't have been thrilled to see Favre in a Vikings jersey. I wasn't happy to see Curtis Martin on the Jets either. The hold-outs, the potential lock-outs, the franchise tags, the revenue calculations and calculating bonuses and whether they qualify as LTBE for cap purposes and coaches playing the conventional way to avoid scrutiny and the safe play and the safe pick and the polished media answers...

It's more professional, and that's good in many ways, but not all ways.

No way, no how. No college team could stay on the field with even the worst NFL team.

The Michigan State player who returned the fumble for the touchdown was carted off the field with a serious hip injury after the game. Apparently, his own guys jumped on him in celebration. Man, that's awful.

You all that live in the New England area probably don't have great college football programs near by to root for

Yeah, I've watched more college this year than in all years combined, and I gotta say, the standard is far below the NFL. The biggest difference is the horrible tackling, which is just barely worse than a lot of the pass coverage. I'm seeing now why being a stud RB in college doesn't always transfer to the NFL. All those tackles they break in college...probably a vast majority of those are finished tackles in the NFL. And sometimes the CBs just stand and watch the WRs catch passes.

I can see how it'd be fun to watch, especially with a dog in the fight (I went to a Canadian university, so I don't), but watching the BB-era Pats for 15 years has spoiled me too much.

 

[Jackson 2]

Feel bad for the punter, but there are not enough bad things in the world that can happen to the Harbabies...

 

[XLIX]

There's about 60 FBS college games per weekend, with the vast majority of players being future accountants, lawyers, doctors, etc.

Yes, you will see some amateur mistakes (which you also see in the NFL). But you will also see some damn entertaining football too.

Cute .gifs, but that isn't from this evening.

 

[Tony2046]

While I know my QB is probably devastated, anytime anything bad happens to a Harbaugh, it warms the ****les of this old heart.

I agree. Whatever a ****le is. But if your ****le is warm I guess that's good....right?
