Big Ten, SEC broke college football. Now they won’t stop whining about it.

This is not a very thorough list.
Most if not all of these are relatively recent.
Frank Cignetti (WVU) went 17-27 from 1976-1979.

November 8, 1970
Saints kicker Tom Dempsey kicks what is then the longest field goal in NFL history — 63 yards — to shock the Lions as time expires at a delirious Tulane Stadium in New Orleans, 19-17.
Don Criqui calls it for CBS, Al Wester for WWL.
Dempsey — who was born without toes on his right foot and without four fingers on his right hand — tops the NFL's previous record of 56 yards set by the Baltimore Colts' Bert Rechichar in 1953.
With the rule the way it is now yes it’s the correct call.
I have a problem with the rule.
Before this rule was instituted this was always a TD or a legal in bounds reception
The existing rule was correctly applied that this wasn’t a catch. But do you think it should be a catch. To me, two feet and clear possession before ball is stripped out of bounds should be a catch. You guys?

5:30 kickoff???
Where did that time come from?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a time like that before for a conference game?

That’s exactly what I’ve been saying since the game ended.
The offense didn’t lose the game. Rich Rods & his 4th quarter play calling lost the game. There’s a difference.
Hawkins wanted to go for it on 4th & 1. Rich was too scared for some reason, even though the offense was clicking. Tables turned with that call.

You are commenting on the entire game snapshot. Of course you score 48 you should expect a win. But Couz is referring to a specific time frame in the game where the offense had the chance to win the game…. It was there for the taking by the O & failed in that moment
Holy swing and a miss. Offense put up 48 points and 600 yards. You can absolutely blame the defense.

I think we beat Kansas handily & have a good chance to take Houston after that.
Our guys are pissed about the way we let the win slip away a lot more than we all are. They are going to play angry.
With our defense I don't have a good feeling against anyone. We make all QBs look like a Heisman finalist. I'm sure the KU QB will have a career day next Saturday.

Plenty of blame to go around.
But with 8 min left in the game & given 2 chances (at that moment) by the defense to build on a 4 point lead & a chance to go up 11; conservative play calling that led to 2 3&outs is what I’m criticizing. We had the chance to seize the win & failed
We didn’t blame the offense, hell we knew not to leave to the Defense if anything! Our offense is all we got.

I just don’t get people.
The D gave us an opportunity to win late in the game when We were ahead by 4 with great field position TWICE!! And the offensive play calling is what I’m criticizing at those 2 precise moments in the game. Blown change to finish for the win. It was there

Of course but I think the silver lining here is that being 1 possession away from beating the No. 13 ranked team at their place galvanizes our team for the last 3 games.
I have a feeling we’ll crush Kansas next week.

Crushed for this team and our fanbase. That’s the kinda win that turns not only a szn around, but a program around. The kinda win you look back on years down the road that everyone acknowledges was the turning point…right there.
Upsetting that’s how it ended

No one is saying the D wasn’t atrocious. So you can’t see how middle of the 4Q we have a chance to go up 11 to deliver the knockout blow & we go 3&out twice because we run up the middle in a loaded 8man box repeatedly? That’s on RR (AT THAT POINT OF THE GAME). Blown chances.

Nobody is saying defense isn’t to blame. The D played the best quarter of the year. Gave up 16 yards, 0 1st downs. Why can’t some understand it’s situational football? We r up 4 with a chance to go up 11 late in the 4Q & deliver the knockout but we go 3&out twice. Thats the issue
