How on the hell does a school invest millions upon millions of dollars into stadium upgrades (albeit a shit hole dump) and have major "malfunctions" of the visitors sideline communications gear and then replay equipment during the only 2 home games that mean anything?
We should fuck with bammers headsets when they come down to JHS.
I don't see how a headset conspiracy would have benefited us in the UT game. Our OC is in the booth, and their DC is on the field. We were on offense first, so I'm not really seeing how that helps us. I think we went 3 and out that series, for that matter.
I don't see how the replay booth being down with us on offense would really help us either. I mean, lets just go ahead and forget that the stadium is undergoing renovation and having an addition put on it. We're definitely cheating.
And as for the corndogs crying? See Argo's post on the first page of this thread. Like I was saying earlier, its all OK when it benefits your team. I didn't see them crying when them knocking Keith Brown down in the end zone sealed the game for them. I didn't see you guys bitching in '06. Its all good when it benefits your team. Do you really expect other fanbases to feel any different? Sure, I think the INT and the spear were bad calls. Maybe Julio touched the ball while out of bounds before Peterson had possession. Consider the following rule:
Rule 4-2 Article 3: “a. A ball not in player possession, other than a kick that scores a field goal, is out of bounds when it touches the ground, a player [JULIO JONES], a game official or anything else that is on or outside a boundary line. … c. If a live ball not in player possession crosses a boundary line and then is declared out of bounds, it is out of bounds at the crossing point.”
It looks like they both touch it at the same time, as Julio's foot is out of bounds. That would make it a dead ball. In one of those pics, it certainly looks as if Julio is out of bounds and touches the ball as Peterson touches it. But still, I can see it as a bad call. It can go both ways because 3-4 different rules come into play. As I've said before, I wish they would have just given LSU the damn ball.
The 4th and inches thing, please. Are we going to squabble over a few inches? Seriously? And for the forward progress, if you actually watched it in real time, the LSU player was already jumping backwards on his own before the Alabama player hit him, as he was trying to dodge the hit. Thats why you're not going to get forward progress on that. I called that one when it happened just the same as I called the INT an actual INT when it happened.
