I see Clemson have decided they don’t want to play for championship this year.
My cousin was at cowboy stadium last night (jealous) but the result suggests it’s tatties for A&M - which makes sense what i saw of calzada in the first half.
Absolutely insane.
The chargers guy who just tried to leap over someone, failed and just kneed the guy in the face only to get obliterated by another guy coming from the side?
Play of the season.
Agnew is fucking incredible at returns.
That just got 1-upped.Originally Posted by phonics
Justin tucker saving the ravens there. Christ. Imagine what he’d do in Denver.
If I was an NFL GM, I’d just find a guy that can kick 60 yard fgs. Don’t know why they make it so hard in themselves hiring these guys that can’t even kick an extra point reliably.
Justin Tucker is the best to ever do it.
His warm up at Wembley a few years ago was incredible too. Blasted it from the halfway line one way, then turned around and did it again the other way and then finally he went 5 yards deeper and smashed it through.
But does he have the goggles?
It's the one thing holding him back.
I know it's probably not the case but I have to say, I feel like kicking field goals isn't that hard and I could do it with a couple months practice.
The actual act of kicking the ball through the posts, yes.
Doing it whilst very large men are running full speed at you with the sole intention of causing you a lot of pain, maybe not.
Looks like the Josh Gordon show has pulled into town again. First stop, Kansas City.
Burrow looked good is really pleasing.
On a side note, notre dame v Cincinnati is on sky sports nfl right now about to kick off.
Think they must show all the notre dame games.
Georgia smashing Arkansas shows that the SEC is a Georgia bama showdown, Arkansas beating A&M and then getting smashed by Georgia… a real who’s actually good season.
Double SEC in the playoff with ohio state and one other. Oklahoma?
Just checked the rankings and real possibility it’s Oregon/penn state or Iowa. Which would be class.
Really like Iowa. Cool stadium and shoved some decent TEs into the NFL.
Didn’t realise drew brees had gone into the commentary booth too. That’s sweet.
Oregon probably just took themselves out, so they'll need some help if they're going to get back in the hunt. It doesn't seem likely that we'll end up with many undefeated teams though, so if the Big 10 & Big 12 both end up with 1-loss champion as well they might sneak in.
Iowa just need to beat Penn State next week, and if they do they've got a good chance at going undefeated, at least until the championship game. Penn State, Michigan, Michigan State & Ohio State all have to play each other still, so they're likely to take each other out, but if Ohio State can run the table & then beat Iowa in the title game, or if one of the others can go unbeaten, they're probably in, although if it ends up as a choice between Ohio State & Oregon as 1 loss champions that head to head loss is really going to hurt.
Oklahoma have been shaky all season, but they're still undefeated, so they're in with a shot, but they do have Texas next week, as well as Oklahoma State (also unbeaten) & Iowa State left to play, so it wouldn't be surprising for them to drop at least one.
Cincinnati should have a clear run to the end now, although SMU are also unbeaten, and you can never rule out UCF, even if they're trash this year. I guess you can also mention BYU & Coastal Carolina again, but they don't really have a shot even if they win out.
Should be a good run to the finish line though - plenty of teams with a shot but not many of them look like they can be relied on not to bottle it, so it'll be interesting to see who holds their nerve.
I really hate our coaching staff at times.
Ty'Son Williams a healthy scratch despite having a 6.1 yards per carry (only RB with a higher amount with 10+ rushes is Tony Pollard with 6.8) because we need to feed Freeman and Murray who can barely manage to get 3 yards.
Yes he's fumbled twice and he's a bit suspect in pass protection but he's our only legit running threat in our depleted running back room.
"I thought it was kind of bulls***," Fangio said. "But I expected it from them. Thirty-seven years in pro ball, I've never seen anything like that. But it was to be expected, and I expected it."
So why did Fangio expect it?
"'Cause I just know how they operate," he continued. "That's just their mode of operation. Player safety is secondary there."
Texas/Oklahoma off to a fast start.
Yeah, I think this game might hit 100pts. Neither team can tackle.

And I guess that’s the end of Spencer rattler at the sooners.
Heading to the PAC12 next year you’d think.
He's headed to the Steelers in the next draft.
I guarantee it.
Imagine if he transferred to Oklahoma State
Texas A&M
They deserved it too. Calzada has looked rubbish so far, but he stepped up today & the offence actually looked good.
Bama had some uncharacteristic plays - Brian Robinson fumbling on a third & short, Bryce Young throwing a pick in the end zone, the busted coverage on the Wydermyer TD & the Achane kick return - but they didn’t look bad on the whole. I feel sorry for Mississippi State as they’ve got to take the beating from a pissed out Bama next week.
Also, Iowa are going unbeaten now. I’m not sure they would have won it Sean Clifford hadn’t got hurt, but as soon as he came out for the second half in street clothes it was over, as their backup just couldn’t move the ball at all.
I still don’t think Iowa are really that good - I think their offense was ranked about 120 out of 130 teams before the game - but that defense just gets an unbelievable number of turnovers, and now the best team left on their schedule is probably Wisconsin, who have been awful this season.
Yeah, it’s a blip for bama but realistically, there’s probably only Georgia in their way anyway and they would meet them in SEC play regardless.
Sneaking past Florida and losing to A&M isn’t a great look, but luckily - who else is there?
Is it just me or did this little gremlin on the sky sports coverage just really obviously drop about 4 uncensored F bombs?
And I'm sure I heard "pussy".Is it just me or did this little gremlin on the sky sports coverage just really obviously drop about 4 uncensored F bombs?
I really wish it was H from Steps.
At least this twat isn't as bad as his other namesake
The swearing portions were apparently pre-recorded that they forgot to bleep, lol.
Mason Crosby is so shit.

Gruden is fucked.Gruden’s messages were sent to Bruce Allen, the former president of the Washington Football Team, and others, while he was working for ESPN as a color analyst during “Monday Night Football,” the sports network’s weekly prime-time telecast of N.F.L. games. In the emails, Gruden called the league’s commissioner, Roger Goodell, a “faggot” and a “clueless anti football pussy” and said that Goodell should not have pressured Jeff Fisher, then the coach of the Rams, to draft “queers,” a reference to Michael Sam, a gay player chosen by the team in 2014.
The league is already investigating Gruden as a result of another email he wrote to Allen in 2011 in which he used racist terms to describe Smith, who is Black.
In that email, Gruden, who is white and was working for ESPN at the time, criticized Smith’s intelligence and used a racist trope to describe his face.
He's gone.
The cardinals roster is filthy on offence.
Adding ertz in to the mix? Jeezo.
Ditching Josh Rosen has to gone well.
My boy isn't the same player he was 2 years ago. I think some niggles have caught up with him, but either way I'm so sad to see him go. I even said to the guys on the discord last night that it felt like that time was coming and here we are.
He'll still be killer for the Cardinals though.
Rattler was officially benched and I don’t think he’s getting back in, bar an injury.
Oklahoma look way better with Williams.
Iowa showing that being good on defence with zero offence isn’t a winning combo.
Georgia, bama, Oklahoma, Ohio state.
After all the upset and chaos of this year, I suspect the final 4 in the playoff will have a familiar feel.
Cincinnati the team that could squeeze in, but suspect they’ll be overlooked or slip up down the way.
Bbc2 for jags fins right now
Has Mark Chapman been sacked off of all the BBC's NFL coverage? Seems a shame if he has. The weekly highlights programme is a bit too much with "Osi & J Bell" going full tilt all the time.
He walked away of his own accord by the sound of it.
That was a class ending. I did not see that call coming to get a quick first down to give their kicker a chance.
Aye, that was a quality super sneaky move by the Jags.
Well the Broncos season has taken an unpleasant turn since the alright start.
Bit worrying that the defence has gone to shit given a) it looked strong and b) that's what Fangio's meant to be good at.
Teddy looks to have lost his head a bit the last couple of games, but at least Courtland Sutton is running wild.
Kid took that elbow like a champ.
Reminder to all the games kick off at 5pm tonight.
Our clocked changed but america is later.
He dead.
Oh shit.
