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.

Enshittification makes it cfb

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!

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

Very surprised that Sam is still in there

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

Let's see some Angeli

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

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

[-] 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.

[-] 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.

[-] 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

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

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

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

[-] 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 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

[-] orangeNgreen@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

I’m a sign, not a cop.

THEY AIN'T GOT NO MODS, PAAAAWWWWWWLLL!

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

UTEP has, umm, a lot to work on.

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

Any of you sickos watching this one?

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

Good luck friend ND fan only

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

Congrats on the solid season open

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

I've been an ND fan since Tyrone Willingham, I have no expectations beyond enjoying watching the lads so thanks

[-] wjrii@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Just tuned in since the lightning delay at Vandy has them showing a Kirby circle jerk. How is that dude somehow so much more self-absorbed than Nick Fuckin' Saban?

I've always been fond of UTEP, but JSU looks like the more entertaining team. Fun Belt is turned it up a notch the past few years, building a geographically coherent conference of schools that are not really big time, but are kind of in traditional college towns or smaller cities where people will care about them.

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

I'm sensing a pattern here

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

oof, definite fumble on the production there cbs

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

The audacity to claim the rule changes are for safety and not ultimately driven by corporate america slithering its tentacles into the sport is disgusting.

[-] rhody@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

This should have been the opening game. Way more entertaining than ND vs Navy.

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

PUNT OF THE SEASON ALERT

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

The theme still fuckin slaps yo

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

Another solid 1st qtr punt. Not quite as good as jsu utep.

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

Say what you will about Umass, apparently they have a legit punter

[-] utiandtheblowfish@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Hawaii at Vandy in lightning delay

Edit: the game will start 1h15m after they get the all clear from lightning. We might have a late one here

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

You enjoying watching Marty and McGee see how far they can shove their heads up Kirby's ass?

[-] utiandtheblowfish@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Hell no

North Alabama and Mercer are in the 4th quarter

[-] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

wtf kinda camera view is this?

edit; lmao I will donate money to a cause if one of the kickers hits that camera, I could hear it on that point after
