We know for a fact that tossing a shoe 20 yards down the field is a penalty, come on refs

[–] anhydrous@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

That OL looked pretty average against a bottom-tier team (w/o their best defensive player). Could be a rough season for Oklahoma, even with so much talent in all of the other places.

Does Oklahoma have an actual hand sign or do they exclusively throw the horns down?

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 3 points 11 months ago

The real question is does the band know how to play anything other than boomer sooner

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Absolutely incredible pick

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Man if espn put half as much money into their actual production as they put into acquiring rights they would have far and away an actual production unit.

Western Michigan @ Wisconsin

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 2 points 11 months ago

Western just pulled off a sweet fake FG to take the lead in the 4th! Jump around indeed

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I reckon Wisconsin will keep a pretty closed playbook to not give Bama anything. Would be interesting if WMU can put them on upset alert

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

WMU with takes the lead at the beginning of the 4th

Finally sitting down to watch my Frogs play their 9:30 central time kickoff from California with a --checks notes-- ACC team.

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

ACC After Dark!

Also, it seems a little chippy early. Already feels like the SMU-Nevada game from last week. Is there something about the west coast that makes Metroplex teams lose their cool?

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

If by "chippy," you mean the Frogs are playing stupid machoball, then yes.

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If I had a nickle for every strange interception off a ricochet that I saw today, I'd have two nickles. Which isn't alot, but it's odd that it happened twice

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

There was also a crazy one in the CU-NDSU game yesterday.

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

TCU playing like ass, but the 300-pound DT getting the INT off the carrom is pretty darn fun.

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Just like last year when they inadvertently set Coach Prime hype into overdrive, sloppy play from TCU is making a school to the west look better than they are. If Sonny doesn't have a good solid year of 7-9 wins, I think the goodwill of the CFP run will be used up and his seat will get pretty warm. Any SMU success will also play into this.

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Point still stands, though managing not to lose does blunt the impact just a bit, lol.

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Anybody else watching this early on their Friday?

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Checking in now! Had internet issues so missed kickoff for these games. Can't stomach watching ou so watching FAU @ Michigan State. In just the first minute there was a somewhat controversial call resulting in an INT for FAU so could be entertaining

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah I've got to watch since they're our first SEC game in what I predict will be a trendsetting game for our season. But yeah... don't watch... RRS should be solid this year at least

[–] orangeNgreen@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I wasn’t able to catch much football today. But looking for to tomorrow’s games!
