🏈 Bowl games thread

Yeah it was very physical, great game. Dont think the next game is gonna be that good.

 

[bamaraider]

Probably not. I do have a feeling though that we may see some crazy stuff we didn't expect. UCF may come out early and surprise them.

Has the "uncatchable pass" judgement been removed from the pass interference rule? If not, the first Michigan State TD, and the difference in the final score, was a gift by the refs.

A friend of mine posted on fb his complete anger over the Iron Bowl when the barn connected on its 4th quarter TD. He claimed that the barn OL were further down field rhan the Stanford OL who were called for being ineligible on that botched FG. Anyone else catch that?

Speaking of crappy SEC officiating, Baylor and UCF have bug eye ref and his crew. Have fun with that Briles and O'Leary.

I'm enjoying watching UCF play so far. It's not as physical and defensive as the last one but they are fun to watch in a different way. I'm rooting for UCF, I like a good underdog, and Baylor was what, 15 point favorites or something? Baylor is still asleep I think ..

 

[bama alum]

Just my .02...I think that UCF's hot start tonight is the best thing for Bama. Always a good reminder that heavily favored teams can get behind the eight ball quickly.

Baylor moves fast as hell. They just got that TD way before UCF was set hahah I blinked and missed it! The play right before was crazy fast too.

Hehe, Mettenberger got caught picking his nose and eating a booger on the sideline today ..

Listening to Chris Spielman call a game is akin to scrubbing one's face with steel wool.

There's definitely something wrong with Mettenbooger...

Baylor players are playing like the Bama players played against the barn. As if they think their HC is going to Texas.

:rofl:

 

[planomateo]

Baylor had 17 penalties, wow...

 

[TerryP]

I only caught the second half of the Rose, but I'm left with little doubt it's the best Rose Bowl game I've seen in...my life? Hands down beats the TX vs USC game of '05 by a landslide!

Freakin' confidence pool took a HUGE shot last night...looks like that note is down the drain. :thumbsdown:

Nice job by UCF upsetting 17 point favorites Baylor .. 52-42. Blake Bortles won Offensive Player of the Game. It's UCF's first BCS win: they're also the youngest school to play in a BCS game.

That TD flip by Petty was pretty tight though, the reaction shot of his mom was crazy.

This man is a genius.

This man is a genius.

:rofl: A most wise man indeed! Good call :tickled_pink:
