Stanford/Louisville

[TheWerewolfFromTwilight]

Um, and I thought we had it bad today.

Ten seconds left. Louisville has the ball 4th and 10 around the Stanford 45.

They elect to go for it, but throw what basically amounted to a Hail Mary for some reason. Was plenty of time to get in field goal range.

So Stanford takes over on downs with 4 seconds left. They check again and make it 5 seconds.

Stanford runs a ridiculous pass and the guy gets out of bounds after a 1 yard gain with 1 second left. They call Louisville for a hit out of bounds. I honestly didn't think it should have been called. Stanford now gets a shot at a 57 yard field goal.

Louisville jumps offsides. It's now a 52 yard field goal. It's good. And it probably wouldn't have been from 57.

Talk about giving a game away.

That's the sport of college football in a nutshell.

So Pitt and Louisville should both be very motivated to win

Good to know

The guy basically punched the Stanford player in the head way out of bounds about two seconds after the play was over. That's going to get called a penalty pretty much every time an official sees it.

It was a penalty. He twisted his leg 4 yards out of bounds and then got up and shoved the WR on the Stanford sideline.

If I was a Louisville fan I’d be pulling my hair out

Here is the play for those that hadn’t seen it:

Yeah, I'm not seeing a "punch to the head." I think the reason I'm not seeing it is because it never happened.

Dumb? Yeah. But I'm not calling that when it potentially decides the game. That's a weak call.

That's what I thought I saw too.

I'm wondering if the Louisville player felt the Stanford player was trying to do something to him, because getting up and shoving the guy seemed like such a strange reaction.
