2021: Week 9 Thread - Department of Youth

[bruin]

We're in trouble all the time you read about us all in the papers
We walk around and bump into walls a blind delegation yeah
And we ain't afraid of high power we're bullet proof

Week 9 is at the door and for you a split second you wanna tell them to slow it down a bit. At this moment while I'm enjoying a nice Coors Light, there is still no announcement where GAMEDAY is headed. Must be a tough call. Halloween week is her hence the Alice Cooper jam. The Autumn Classic begins on Tuesday (Go Braves). NHL and NBA is just greasing their gears. All and all, no complaints here. You fine gentlemen enjoy your week. Will be on the look out for some Halloween costumes...to stare at. Cheers, my dudes!!!!

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that OU starts off like shit and comes back and wins a tight game.

Clemson's offense sucks ass. Which means they will score 40 this weekend vs the Noles.

It's Illinutgers week!!!!!

Michigan - Michigan State at 11 AM is an interesting timeslot for a top 10 showdown

BIG NOON SATURDAY


with the ALL AMERICAN GIRL Jenny Taft

Okie state with homecoming against KU. What could go wrong?


Texas Tech travels to Norman. OU has a shit defense, but I don’t know enough about tech to say whether tech will actually be competitive in this game.

TCU and Gary Patterson need to part ways. The amount of talent wasting away on that roster is sad.

Baylor handles Texas quite easily I think.

November in the big 12 is about to get pretty wild. Every team has flaws and extremely small margins for error, from top to bottom.

Sounds like DTR is out for the Bruins Saturday night in SLC.

 

[Ander1345]

9OT's really wore this dude out. Does he know what day it is?

 

[Brick]

focused on USC offer

 

[Dr. Shats Basoon]

gonna be hilarious to watch USC/LSU drop a ten bagger on Franklin after he goes 5-7

 

[Ander1345]

The Big House he is referring to here is a premium property near USC.

 

[pavel]

Lol. Ain’t none of them in that part of LA!

 

[kella]

Wake behind Michigan state is a joke lol

Also, GAMEDAY made their decision and they’re heading to East Lansing. GAMEDAY AKA WITH BIG NOON ON FOX & THE ALL AMERICAN GIRL JENNY TAFT!!!!

Well, Bruins should win easily, then.

This is probably my favorite play of all time. The 109yd FG attempt returns are great and all but you have like 20, 30 seconds to process those from start to finish. This happened so fast you can tell even the SPARTY fans the camera finds don't seem convinced it was reel.

Harbaugh's face gets me everytime I watch he highlight.

This is probably the worst decision to punt, ever. It's also the worst execution of a terrible decision to punt ever.



Any of those upbacks could heave it to that guy. Even if it's incomplete they have to kick a 70 yard field goal. A much better idea would have been to just run it up the fucking middle. The worst thing that can happen is you don't get it - maybe lose a yard or two. A 15 yard snap in cold weather and high pressure is absolutely the worst thing you can do outside of intentional sabotage.

Football coaches are not smart, by rule. The guys who are actually smart are a complete aberration and an extreme exception to that rule.

 

[Brick]

i bet @Soonerfan09 has a bad opinion about this

 

[pavel]

I had forgotten about this. I feel like this debacle led to the "have the QB run around backwards for 10 seconds and heave it as high as he can out of bounds" play that seems to have replaced the punt in these situations

Yeah there’s so much wrong with this sport/coaching. If you rallied up the # of Ls teams took from special teams/fourth down decisions over a decade id bet it’s pretty high. The sport is plagued by some long standing belief that on 4th down we must willingly concede possession to the other team no matter the circumstances!

As it always should have! 10 seconds is a lot, but when you consider that an incomplete pass still results in them having to kick an impossible field goal or attempt a hail mary, it's a pretty good option. Who was the last MSU QB who could reliably complete an 8 yard pass let alone 63 yards

ok ur right but only barely




in his athletic prime he only got it into the endzone because it was batted down at the goal line and run in by the receiver!
