Cotton Bowl
« on: January 07, 2011, 07:23:44 pm »
So, it's cool to shape the American flag into the shape of the US?

"Did you know that when the LSU stadium is full on game day, it would qualify as the 7th largest city in LA?"  Worst random stat ever.

Also, Kenny Albert needs to work radio.

On game day, I bet that Tiger Land is the third largest city in Louisiana behind Baton Rouge and New Orleans, because there are thousands who simply come there to tailgate and don't have tickets.

Ummm...the LSU stadium is *in* Baton Rouge, is it not?

The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

A&M corner back intercepts at the 2 or 3 yard line and his momentum carries him into the end zone.  He came out to the five, but had he knelt in the end zone instead, is it a safety or touch back?

I think that would have been a safety

They just clairified that he intercepted at the 6.  Apparently in CFB, outside of the 5 momentum no longer matters, so you're right it would have been a safety.

Miles is an idiot. Why would you bother challenging a call that's going to give you first and goal on the 1/2 yard line? And now he gets bailed out by the booth guys, who say that they buzzed the official before Miles made the challenge.

The Ags have had poor offense before the in the season, but I haven't seen them pushed around on defense like this. Either they forgot how to play during the break or no one in the Big 12 had a serious offense this year.

What an amazingly long game.  It was 10:00 when the 2nd half started.  And halftime was like 40 minutes.

 The Ag defense has been building on the energy of that OU game.  The delay was a concern.  That said, LSU played bigger, stronger, and faster.  Hats off to LSU.

You're right. Miles is lucky.

They did that at the Texas Bowl, too. Never seen it before that.
