I think the best way for this to work is for people to post a parent comment for any game they're watching. But honestly y'all can do whatever, I'm not a mod

Edit: I would also encourage sorting by new, but ya know, I'm not signing your check

I'm gonna say it... I don't much like the new clock rules

[-] Zebov@feddit.ch 2 points 1 year ago

Don't remember hearing about them. Care to enlighten me?

[-] Khavanon@lemmy.today 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)
  1. First downs don't stop the clock except the last two minutes of the 2nd and 4th Q.
  2. Can't call consecutive timeouts.
  3. 1st and 3rd Q can end on penalties, they are applied at the start of the next quarter.

I think the first one is really only going to make a big difference, but they want to reduce the number of plays in a game.

JSU and UTEP just saw pt 2 come into pay

[-] Wakmrow@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

College used to stop the game clock on first downs

[-] wjrii@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

That's simultaneously DPI and OPI on 89 for Navy! Gotta call that, ref!

[-] wjrii@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Alright, I think I've got my sicko fill for the early window. Gonna get some other stuff done until maybe the Hawaii-Vandy game.

Week 0 and absolute ass tackling, name a more iconic duo

[-] wjrii@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

I know the DB got there a beat early on that incompletion, but I'm 100% fine with that as a no call on an underthrown ball. Defenders should be entitled to some reasonable amount of inertia along their existing vector. Nothing feels cheaper than a "let him run into me" DPI call.

Not that it's gonna matter in this game, LOL.

[-] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Let the boys play is just a general rule of thumb for me. Unless that contact is egregious and obviously impacted the outcome of the play I think the no call is good.

[-] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Looks like a lovely day for football

[-] wjrii@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

The Aviva is also a nice stadium. I do always hope some player will sneak a hurley onto the field.

[-] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Very surprised that Sam is still in there

[-] Wakmrow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Welp I guess that's why he's still in

[-] Wakmrow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Let's see some Angeli

[-] Wakmrow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Hartman is good. Navy isn't an FCS team, this is exciting, 5/5 touchdown drives my goodness

[-] wjrii@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Academies absolutely cannot play undisciplined, but I guess it didn't matter.

[-] wjrii@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I assume Jac Collinsworth is on some kind of registry that precludes him from international travel.

[-] wjrii@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I'm going to give it at least the entire first quarter to see if Navy has anything up their sleeves, but this may be more of a ceremonial start of the season for me.

[-] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I was really hoping Navy would look ready and nd would look shaky. Not sure that's what we're getting

[-] Wakmrow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Boooooo we're happy ND is rolling

[-] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

To be clear I don't necessarily pull against nd, just for tight games if they don't involve Tenn, bama or fl
