SEC is the best
in the ranking of worst referees. These guys suck. All of them.
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
The guys reffing the UM/MSU game beg to differ
At least they didn’t flagrantly misinterpret the rules resulting in a TD.

They must not have been true SEC officials
Probably had to bring in some high school refs.
That “Hands to the face” call that nullified a Tebow interception was pathetic. That crap happens 10 times every game and is never called.
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
Yes, but when the guy's helmet gets ripped off
They’re a little more likely to call it.

It wasn't ripped off.
It was pushed off. There’s a difference.

True, but:
My point was that if someone’s helmet comes off they’re going to be way more likely to call a penalty than if the infraction’s committed anyway, but the helmet doesn’t come off. if that makes sense.

If you're in the mood for a really simple drinking game w/Florida:
every time they say the word “speed”.
I was going to do a shot every time they mention celebration
Although “personal foul” will work, too.

Note:
This applies to the game as a whole.

Nah, I like my TV
.22 round through the TV stand. ;)
by Chris Pendley on Nov 1, 2008 4:19 PM EDT up reply actions
I hope you stocked up.
You might also consider ways to cool the barrel down. There’s probably a risk of overheating in this one.
I'm gonna save the shots through the TV
For the second half of our game. :)

This just in:
Wyoming is rolling 28-3 over SDSU in the 3rd.
(Hey, I gotta prop by alma when I can. It’s not very common.)
Can we score 28 points?
Hate to get embarrassed at homecoming

Well, it's 35 now
So I guess that doubles their output?

Speaking of Wyoming:
One of the local radio shows yesterday (Tony Basilio, IIRC) mentioned that Fulmer would be a great fit at Wyoming, assuming he leaves Tennessee. Something about it being a program he could really build up.
I get the feeling they don’t understand what Wyoming is.
I have a feeling local radio doesn't understand Fulmer's legacy
It’d be weird as hell to see him anywhere else, even with the current Tennessee situation.

I'll give this much:
The announcers are doing a good job of actually analyzing the game. It’s kinda nice, actually.
Yeah, I love when Verne says
“I thought he should have gone to Massaquoi there.”
Thanks, Coach!
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
This crew is normally pretty good when they're not doing Tennessee games
I thought Blackledge was going to bludgeon Fulmer after the 3rd quarter of the Auburn game. He was getting pissed.

Still goes in the "blown call" column
I’m keeping track. I’ve had to sharpen my pencil twice.
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
They missed that blow to the head on Massaquoi
by Private Right.

Is Moreno the best Mexican-American RB in the NCAA?
Discuss.

Is it just me
or does Matthew Stafford kind of look like that kid from Life Goes On?
Gary Danielson has a higher regard for Stafford
than I. “The only QB in college who could make that throw?”
Bad throw to the TE in the end zone. That was a bad throw not a bad route.
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
He's not the only QB in college who can make any throw.
60% 1900 yards 12 TDs 5 Ints aren’t record breaking numbers.
That’s what I was referring to. Gary makes him sound like Troy Aikman or something.
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
Yes, but why disrupt the love for Stafford with stats?
He has such a good arm! Look at how strong he overthrows his receivers! It’s totally their fault, not his.

Exactly, spoken by an ex-QB.
Get Darrell Stingley in the booth to talk about great passers.
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
Point taken.
Still, he’s thrown twice as many touchdowns this year as our QBs combined (career numbers). I will concede the point that he is overhyped. I’d still trade for him.
You think he could throw for that many TDs behind our offensive line?
I beg to differ. No one can throw with a sweaty DE on his back.
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
True, but....
Can Tebow overcircumcize by 20 yards like Stafford can?
Wait, don’t answer that.
by Chris Pendley on Nov 1, 2008 5:15 PM EDT up reply actions
Ok.
Now the announcers are analyzing a little too much.
Some of their stuff is getting really nit-picky.
Whoah. That wasn't even a doink.
More like thud. Square on.
Go Vols!

I have an idea.
If UT doesn’t get a bowl bid, we could always invite the Wolverines down to Neyland for a game.
Heh.
It would at least answer the question: If an SEC and Big 11 team play – each with a 3-9ish record – would anybody care?
Would Indiana - Mississippi State be the undercard?
We could probably get Purdue and Auburn to join, too.

To which game?
I don’t think either coach in the IU / MSU game is in danger. And Tiller’s retired at the end of the year anyway.
Also, shot!

The Bengals and Lions are on the clock for Matthew Stafford
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
That's a #1 overall draft pick pass right there

Receiver ran a bad route and the sun got in his eyes
Plus global warming has been weighing on his mind. It’s not his fault! He’s great, I tell you.
Deferring is for p_ssies. Make a decision!
More great officiating
No sir, my shirt wrapped itself around his hand. He didn’t grab me.

Why doesn't Charlie Strong get more attention?
Is he on anybody’s list?
Go Vols!

Wyoming 35, SDSU 10
Wyoming had over 500 yards of offense with only 10 pass attempts (6 completions).
Granted, it was against a very bad SDSU at Laramie (7200 feet altitude) in November, but it still smells of a ball-control game next week. 50 offensive plays each team?
