Oregon 1 for 5 on 2 pt conversions. Would not be surprised if it cost them the game.

And they just ran a play action QB draw on 4th and 18. Helfrich is terrible. Turning Oregon back into an 8 win team.

This seems to happen almost weekly. How damn hard is it? Some kind of cool factor. If I want cool I'll take Walter Payton or Deion high stepping it in from the 20.

Dropping ball early is equivalent to hitting a HR but missing home plate in celebration.

If they kicked the extra points they would have tied, right? I didn't watch all of the game but that's the math I see.

Sooner player (Mixon) did the same against the Buckeyes on his kickoff return for a TD but it wasn't caught by the refs...crazy.

The one I posted about was absurd. Cal player dropped it, and a Texas player picked it up. But the refs said because he wasn't aware that it was a fumble, that it wasn't an "immediate recovery" by the defense. So offense got the ball at the 1 yard line. Kneeled a few times, game over. Made no sense.

Number of years ago Plexico Burress, think in his rookie year, caught a pass and went to the ground.
Got up and spun the ball without being touched down.

Refs ruled he 'gave himself up' so no fumble.

Not sure if that is legit, or just because he was a steeler at the time and they get protected status in the league.

Thought that looked wrong! Oh well. Just buying into the theory that the steelers have protected status! At the time I thought it was BS call and still do! Have to admit...steelers do seem to get the benefit of the doubt more often...

Why does MSU never play like this vs OSU? They play like the flippin Patriots against us, but they are getting housed today. Wisconsin has a heck of a schedule coming up. Michigan, us, Iowa, Neb
