NCAAF In-Game Thread

Man UVA was 7 cents y/96 cents no to make the playoff at the beginning of the drive
 
That might have been Virginia's only chance ever at making the playoffs and they played with a mixture of fear und unbelievable stupidity
 
At least I can just tune in to the CFP now when it gets interesting. I'm not sitting through all those commercials again
 
I got in early but was pleased to see these live numbers. Feels like everybody in the world stepped all over this game before the numbers on the fave came back down to earth a bit.

I hope so man. Could be a bad thing or a good thing depending how disciplined one is. All I know is that these guys like to score 30+ and in this division you usually need at least that to cover 14 - 17. Other than that these teams might as well be Greek to me.
 
And I knew if I didn't get in early the line on the fave was gonna get obliterated with the uniqueness/national exposure.

Made reference elsewhere but this is enjoyable. Business CFB is so boring and now trying to be drawn out longer. Big boys don't need that. FCS needs that and it's fun!
 
After watching football my entire life I can not believe the stupidity that coaches now tolerate out of their QBs, the way these QBs run around only to throw some crazy ass stupid flick of the ball at the last second to try and avoid a sack or going out of bounds...how many times do we see one of those get INT'd? Every week. And guys do it in the NFL so guys at the college level do it. Unbelievably dumb.

I've also wondered why they can't coach a RB to simply throw the ball OOB if nothing is there. The obvious time is a trick play but if you're stuck in the backfield, throw it away and save the yards if you can. I guess they aren't wired that way but it's a shitty excuse for not thinking ahead.

They could coach it, the ball security would be big. QBs are used to being hit with the ball in a vulnerable about to be thrown spot. I just saw the SC State RB bottled up and then reversed field and managed only a minor loss. He could've tried to throw it away, but while being pursued, the risk of a fumble by a guy not used to doing that is a risk. The other thing would be the linemen and where they are on the field assuming it is a run then all of a sudden the RB throws it. Coaches are smarter than me, but every now an then I wonder if they actually are sometimes.

It's simple preparation, coaching to not live in the moment

I have a couple video type interviews today but can't stop thinking about the smear posts. Kinda want to plant someone or something before I do this

As in the game we played when young at school? You should set up a tackling dummy or something. Get you ready for the interview

Yeah smear the queer got some solid run in a thread, maybe this one, last night and I do need a dummy for exactly this occasion

It was the Michigan coaching thread oddly enough
 
I have to hand it to the HBCUs. I don't like those conferences as much as the others, but they have great fanbases that care and tradition and history. The fact they can pull off a conference champ vs conference champ game that really matters is cool.

Yeah it's really grounding amid all the chaos in the sport. I love it.
