Another TFL for Jacas
This is the problem. You can add as much replay and nuance to rules as you want, but all I know is when we were kids, everyone knew what a catch, and incompletion and a fumble looked like. Now nobody has a clue including the refs and review booth so they can a play any way they want. Wish they'd go back to common sense rules and just have replay there to reverse egregious errors.
So far so good
Gabe is a monster.
Outstanding seal block to give Valentine the hole. Threw him like a ragdoll
Boy that was wide open and Bowick slowed for a second!! Darn it!
Priestly absolutely mauled a guy on that Valentine run.
Dang^^
If Bowick didn't hesitate there on the route he's hit in stride. Perfect throw and recognition by Luke
Reciever looked like he slowed, Altmyer threw where he should have.
That's the kind of mental misstep that loses you confidence in getting those shots moving forward. Hope he can snag one. We haven't had a true-take the top off the defense guy like him in the past.
100% These announcers just have such little recognition or understanding of the game it's scary.
Ugh terrible call on 3rd down. Someone bring creative Lunney back.
He's got the change of direction quickness that Laughery and Faegin just can't match.
Valentine with a line that can block is going to look like Barry Sanders as an upperclassman. He's shifty as hell, fast and has exceptional vision
