I've half watched ESPN for 11 hours. Yet to see a single highlight or mention.
Richardson is a monster. Lattimore is a man. Both are profiled in "Heisman watch" recaps.
Dyer does not exist.

Well this entire season is already decided. LSU vs. Alabama on November 5th is the national championship. All other games are just there to help pad stats for a few players.

You'd think any unranked team beating any #10 team would be highlight worthy...

141 yrds for Dyer is a start. I agree though, it was a whole team effort kind of deal; blue collar type.

What did he have? 40 carries?
If he had 2 carries, highlights. 10 carries, maybe a highlight. 40 out of 90 plays and that's what he gets, nah.
Solid performance as the workhorse of the offense.

Damn titz, where the hell have you been.
The point was that was the only real highlight type discussion except for the fact Auburn actually had a D.

McCalleb gets high/lowed into a somersault and pops up immediately.

I gotta disagree with this thread, everything I saw from ESPN to halftime of the other games we were the second story after the lead.

I didn't watch non-stop. I just never saw it once.
I was watching that U channel once and they teased it for an upcoming segment, but never mentioned it again.

This^^^ The problem I saw was only 3 highlites shown.
1. Alshon's push off TD
2. Lattimore's 15 yard run
3. How the refs screwed the Cocks on the clock running out.

That no call pissed me off, but the annoucers acted like Jeffery just climbed the ladder because him and Jerry Garcia were just great.

When I first saw the play, I thought Little Big Head had great coverage, head turned, good positioning. I just chalked it up to Alshon being a great athlete and getting the jump ball. I saw LBH running back to the referee screaming for the push off and thought, STFU..he just made a great play. Then I saw the replay. Well damn.

They knew they were going to give us the game in the end. Had to throw Spurrier a bone.

I have not yet understood this one? So what if there is one second? You have one second which will not enable you to get the snap off before time runs out when the official starts the clock. If they want to whine about something they should wine about Spurrier/Garcia's mis-management of the timeouts.

I was going to be pissed if they put time back on the clock after a review. The refs did the right thing. Had they gone to review it, USC could have EASILY gotten the FG team on the field to snap the ball the second the whistle blew. Otherwise, there is no way that the cocks could have gotten the entire FG team on and snapped the ball. Good call by the officials to realize that reviewing the play would have been a HUGE advantage to the cocks.
To be honest...it was just another bone headed play by Garcia. Trotter>Garcia= :facepalm:

The clock restarts after a first down as soon as the Down Box Stick is place NOT when the chains are set. The refs stand over the ball if the team with ball possession makes any subs, such as running a FG team out. They have to give the Def. a chance to sub as well. I don't care if they had 3 seconds, they'd have never gotten off a FG, and likely no way they'd have gotten a snap off at all with one sec. But, as usual, losers make excuses. Haters will find a way to not give credit for a win. Fuck 'em all.

Agree. My post above was if they had stopped it with 1 second. They'd have never gotten a play off. If they had put it back on and given Spurrier a chance to get his shit together, they may have.

EC says call at end of Tigers-Gamecocks correct
Posted on: October 3, 2011 1:02 pm

Dramatic as it may have been, no one would call Auburn's 16-13 victory over South Carolina Saturday a classic. Both teams committed game-altering mistakes by the bushel, and on the game's final play it seemed that sloppiness had extended to the officiating crew. Via Mocksession.com, here's what the end of that play looked like:
(http://eye-on-college-football.blogs.cbssports.com/images/collegefootball/auscscreencap.jpg)
Yes, that's Gamecock Bruce Ellington clearly down past the first-down marker with 2 seconds still to play. But by the time officials signaled for the clock to stop, those two seconds had elapsed, Auburn's players spilled onto the field, and the game was ruled over. Steve Spurrier was left confused and less-than-happy:
"We made the first down. I thought his knee was down with at least one second left. In fact, I know it did. The referee said when his knee went down it showed 0:00. That's what he told me.
"I said, 'wait a minute, don't you review that?' He said, 'no' that it was zero. He said 'that's it, it's all over.' "
Though the SEC office has been willing in recent years to admit when its officials have made mistakes, in this case it has backed up the crew on the field. The Twitter feed of conference official Chuck Dunlap had this to say Saturday night:
Statement regarding end of SC/AU game: According to rule 3.3.2e, when a team is awarded a first down, the game clock is stopped when the covering official gives the timeout signal. Based on review, the covering official followed proper procedure.
To be fair to the official, between making the judgment that Ellington was down, the signal to the timekeeper for the clock to stop, and the clock actually being stopped, there's easily two seconds' worth of potential human error involved. We're not going to argue with Dunlap that "proper procedure" wasn't followed.
But we've also seen that procedure happen much more quickly than it was in this instance. We don't blame Spurrier or the Gamecocks at all for feeling like they should have been given the opportunity for one more play. They should have.
But that's also the risk any team runs when throwing over the middle with no timeouts and the clock down to its final seconds, and that one extra play would have had to have been a low-percentage Hail Mary if it was anything at all. Allowing for at least one second to run off between Ellington hitting the turf and the clock stopping, either a spike or sprinting the field goal team on for a 47-yarder don't seem like realistic options. And herding both teams off the field for a replay review to add that one second back on the clock -- giving Carolina a chance to properly set up for their field goal try, a chance they'd done nothing to actually earn -- wouldn't be remotely fair to Auburn.
The bottom line? The Gamecocks and their fans have a right to complain. But they shouldn't confuse that right with the belief that the officials had more to do with the outcome than Stephen Garcia's decision to check down to Ellington to begin with.
It seems like a huge deal is always made about any call, especially late in the game, that goes our way.
What about the three fucking touchdowns we had to score for the refs to give us one? That pissed me off possibly worse than the Jeffries/TBell PI no-call.
