Fiesta Bowl - Michigan vs TCU

[utvolpj]

....
So who is?

UT was better all season and the team that lined up last night could beat TCU. Bama would beat them as well

 

[AthensVol2007]

They're good but not one of the 4 best

What do they have to do to prove they’re one of the top 4? They’ve done everything asked of them and just put up 51 on a team giving up 13 PPG.

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

HOLY CRAP. The Fiesta Bowl trophy cost 1.5 MILLION.

 

[VOLNPA]

How about the missed forward lateral?

He was behind the LOS when he threw it. Now the question could be were there any men illegally down field?

 

[Lawrence Wright]

Screw Georgia and Ohio st. I hope they both lose to TCU.

Sincerely,
The Entire World

Based on all those wins they racked up against really good teams. Right? Ohio State. That’s it, and Ohio State’s big wins are non-existent.

No, just based on watching those teams play each other. Michigan doesn’t make so many mistakes and they win easily. Some forced by TCU, some Michigan just playing poorly. I agree Michigan played in a crappy Big 10 and played an even worse OOC schedule.

 

[ETV]

Big10 is poo. Has anyone in the conference won a nonconference game that matters?

And I like the no call. Used his head but not sure you could say he launched and he hit the name plate. Would have been the ultimate bail out for UM who botched the final play

The ball carrier had his back to him and was in the process of being down by a previous defender. Per the rule book, it's targeting. Either apply the rule evenly to every team, regardless of the point in the game or remove the rule.

Win their weak conf

Good point.

How do you assist on a tackle where the offensive players not standing up without taking your head down and risk injury?

 

[ru4real-really?]

just watched TCU whip Michigan. an observation: TCU is a mature beefed up Tennessee. Sonny Dykes runs the same offense that he and Josh learned from Mike Leach !

 

[utvolpj]

How was that illegal? First time the ball went forward

 

[YankeeVol]

You’re right. They’re one of the 2 best.

 

[AustinMem]

My dream scenario, OSU bears Georgia, then TCU beats them

Georgia needs to kill OSU, then they can lose to TCU. I want to see Herby’s tears.

No disrespect but screw "Per the rule book"

 

[utvolpj]

Sure they'll play for the NC but they're still not one of the 2 best

I have never heard that as criteria. It's always did he launch? Did he hit head or neck? That's what has been forced down our throats for years. He didn't make contact with head or neck. He assisted on a tackle.

He put his helmet into the back of his neck. They got lucky

Consider going through your sports enjoyment not caring what Herbie thinks.

He led with crown of helmet. That is also a criteria.

 

[Switch 625]

Of all the targeting calls this season across college football, that is the one they say “no foul” on…. Lmao

I’m ok with it.

Official’s didn’t want the heat that would have came with calling it.

Not for me. I hate OSU, but I hate Georgia more than anyone.
