While the replays were a good idea, they have been abused. In or out of bounds, targeting, fumbles and that's it. LET THEM PLAY.

Agreed

Yea I have always had a problem with the "targeting" rule! More so the penalty...

[2k]

The targeting rule needs to go, because it has really always been around. They used to call it spearing and only called it if looked like an attempt to inflict injury or used as a payback. It always seems to be called more when the game is on the line. Stopping the action when a team is on a roll is extremely unfair. Tempo wins games!!!

Another way teams themselves stall out tempo is "injury timeouts." A player takes a hit & fakes an injury to stop the clock, especially when their team is out of timeouts.  Is not possible to determine if that injury was real or not but sometimes these look extremely convenient, timely, and stall out an opponent who is on a roll.  One way to stop this would be: any player who halts play for any injury is out for the rest of that entire possession - on defense or offense.  Or out for the rest of that quarter.  As it stands now, some grin on the sideline then come back in 1 play later.  Most injuries are real, some are not.

I agree on this.  When you see a player that's fine & walking around, but suddenly falls down to stop play - that needs to be addressed.  Make them leave the game for a series of downs.

Points spread should have just got bigger with OU losing 3 players. Loosing the D lineman will make a bad defensive non existent

Hated to hear that but it speaks volumes for Coach Riley. Brings back bad memories though....before the Championship Game in '16, Swinney suspended their leading WR and lost much worse that the score showed. We need those type of coaches to lead our young people. Many coaches (one from Alabama for sure) will suspend rule violators and law breakers and then right before the big game players will be reinstated. Good luck to the Sooners, but damn man!!!

Some teams do better at 8 am, others at noon, & other teams at 4 pm.  Looks like my Longhorns will do a little better at 4 pm.

Interesting also that 6 of the top 10 are SEC schools.

Good deal to Clemson on having the numero uno recruiting class, Jimmy.

It would appear Saban is getting it from the Tigers on the bottom and top...

Maybe need to lay off the late night drinking

That would explain why *some* of past year's recruiting classes have played like asses instead of a bunch of 4 & 5 stars.

It's always 5 o'clock somewhere.

Oh Oh Jimmy you just threw some bad JuJu.  Hope it bites YOU 

Seems that those Buckeyes are talking trash also, you think it might be because they only have cream puffs?
