I thought it was odd ABC would never show the replay for FSUs multiple unsportsmanlike conduct penalties. Felt like they were censoring their own coverage to protect the image of "college football.". For disclosure I hate both FSU and ND. Great game, though.

You don't watch much football if the last time you saw that penalty was 10 years ago.

The FSU db's were pointing fingers at each other after the play, it was a blown coverage and the penalty had nothing to do with the outcome of the play. Was it a penalty ?, yes, should it have been called ????

I'm not talking about "holding." That "pick" or "rub" route is done by every team almost all the time. Technically its illegal but its rarely enforced. Except of course at Doak, on 4th down, with 10 seconds left in the 4th. Thats my point.

Didn't I see you spout off similar last year? How was that Alabama national championship this last January?

And off we go!

The most unfortunate side effect is the exhaust trail down my legs.
A little more cheese will lean out the mixture.

Why worry about it? When the truth about Winston and Dumbo Fisher comes out, the NC and all those wins will be forfeited anyway. 2000 autographs on items with consecutive serial numbers? YGTBSM

There's a video on FoxSports.com in which three commentators take that play apart frame by frame. All three agree that this went well beyond a rub route and holding was definitely the right call.
