Watching this in real time was so cool.
Here’s something I’ve never noticed before: Gordon Hayward definitely commits a lane violation on Kobe’s FT for 60 just in case he missed, right? There’s no way that’s not what he’s doing here, the double step looks absolutely purposeful.
@thadbrown7 This is wild. Especially given the possession arrow, though, the greater sin by far would be blowing it dead and then seeing it drop in after the whistle. I think they probably did the right thing in the moment to just guarantee that ball wasn’t still moving.
@TheRealF1ash Yep, really glad Birmingham decided to throw their weight behind making historic power Ole Miss the last team standing this year. Maybe next year they’ll get out of the way so Auburn can find a way to not lose seven games!
@BrandonBeck4 Don’t know if you watched him at Georgia much, but it is 100% what felt true at the time. He had entire games where his impact just didn’t exist. You knew the talent was there, but the passion seemed to be inconsistent at best. Obviously not true! Projecting teenagers is hard!
@blinkforhome according to your notification emails sent to me, the same not-mine device + IP address has been trying to get into my account every 12 minutes for nearly 11 hours now, and your support team hasn’t done anything. Can we please figure out how to stop this madness??
@GeneSteratore@tjmcaulay how much leeway do refs have in the order of what they announce for a penalty? Thinking about Detroit yesterday - could he have started with something other than the ruling on the field, knowing how the crowd would react/then push back on?
@CFBNerds These replies are making me laugh. If Bama got lucky this half because Oklahoma donated points, then what did Oklahoma get in the first matchup??
@ScottBarrettDFB This is obviously a catch. But I think the way they call it today, they would’ve ruled this incomplete. When he rolls over on the ground, see the ball moving?
If I’m right, this is an indictment of today’s rules
@ClintRLamb Asking genuinely: for a random fan, this doesn’t look like it’s run with much urgency or deception for the DB. What makes this a well-run route?

I think this is my favorite one. It’s definitely the first one I remember just cackling over from the Bee.
@ArmandDoma The early origins of the Bee were amazing for this exact reason. It was poking at specifically the evangelical community it was part of, so the nuance to the jokes was outstanding. Very hard to take that brand of humor to a large scale.
Every great Oats team has had a similarity: the 90-second gamebreaker run.
Game is usually close…
then BAM: something like 3-steal-dunk-miss-3-miss-and 1 and the game is just over. Can come at any time in the game, but sweetest at the end. That’s what hit SJU yesterday.
@voiceofD Reportedly, they did change his number for the weekly game roster and depth chart. So it’s still totally intended to fool, but at least they did it correctly.
The world needs honest and courageous entrepreneurs and communicators who care for the common good. We sometimes hear the saying: “Business is business!” In reality, it is not so. No one is absorbed by an organization to the point of becoming a mere cog or a simple function. Nor can there be true humanism without a critical sense, without the courage to ask questions: "Where are we going? For whom and for what are we working? How are we making the world a better place?"
@suricidal I’m an Alabama football fan. When we were basically inevitable for a while because of both our defense and offense, opponents took to saying that we played “joyless murderball”. Pretty much what Arsenal is doing now.
And yes, it’s VERY fun to be a fan of it!
