I wonder what Nick Saban said in the locker room at half-time. If anything.

It is a prophylactic rule.
I’d hire you in an instant to be the broadcast rules’ expert.
Five words to properly put the targeting rule in context.

Note:  First BJ of the year from JumboNut Jim to RisqueNutSteve.

(That didn't take long)
Third stupid, stupid post by a stupid, stupid man who does not know the meaning of the word prophylactic. Sadly, neither did the john who impregnated his mom.

Is sodomizimg your stepson considered incest in the enlightened desert of AridZona?
No, the two of you can make your vacation plans without worrying about that.

You picked the right state to hole up in then. Good job!   Jim wants seconds.
Well then, you should service him again. If he paid up.  Don't let posting.stop you. Please.

You guys sound like idiots regarding the targeting rule, and *intent* has nothing to do with it when the action alone was egregious, like the TLaw hit, I knew that guy was gone from the first replay.

They both should have been ejected so tOSU got off light IMO, other dude threw a punch...wtf?

It’s a good rule, helmet to helmet play is never, ever excusable, so dumb.

You guys, I thought, were better than that, so fucking dumb.

Making it a 15 yard penalty is condoning targeting, what’s your solution but the rule is clear and was correctly applied, say you don’t like the rule and own it, and don’t equivocate about whether it’s a good call or not, just say:  “I don’t like the targeting rule” and shut the fuck up, I’m sick of it.

If you have been lucky enough to attend a Rose Bowl the view of the San Gabriel Mountains right now at about 5 pm PST is worth the trip alone.

Quick trivia: Of teams with at least 3 appearances, what school has the best winning percentage in Rose Bowl history?

Not sure, but I think I know the answer to "of teams with at least 30 Rose Bowl Appearances, which has the best winning percentage?"

Go Ala... Go Mi... Fuck this game.

Yeah.  I had picked Alabama in the poll.   But I would not have minded if Michigan had won, since I all for the downfall of the evil empire.   But I was pretty ambivalent

They're defending the indefensible, again.  It is not a game, it is life and death. Winning is the only thing.  The rule is stupid.  They know what they signed up for.  We want bone-crushing collisions like a demolition derby....blah, blah, blah, blah, blah....
You stupid, stupid man. The only person here protesting the rule is the one whose dick is permanently lodged in your cheeks.

Heh. One of the losses plays into my answer.

Alabama is.4 - 1 -1. The tie separates.them.

Have you ever driven from Vegas to Phoenix at sunset with a shower and lightning coming in?


My most interesting experience like that was driving East on the 40 at night about 20 years ago with lightning strikes visibly hitting the ground on both sides of the freeway.  While I was indeed impressed by the "Light Show," I was also scared s***less.   I have never been that scared inside the Rosebowl...even when UCLA actually threatened to win.  Therefore, I'm going to give the nod to watching the sunset at the Rosebowl out of those two experiences. 

Though tonight, I was completely happy watching scarlet and blue intermix over the Saddleback Mountain out my back window while watching the Rosebowl from our family room.

Shaddap.

The Earl Campbell/Jack Tatum collision is one of the best plays I've ever seen. Two men playing football. Hundreds, no, probably thousands of like hits throughout college football history. Never see that great stuff ever again.

Lightning storms are like Methchicken cheerleaders: beautiful at a distance.

Personally, I never tire of Big Sur.
