CFB 2023 Week 6: A thread that, respectfully, needs to be domed

I’m glad he found employment after that NFL career. Just wish he could lower the volume a little.
Miami could have clocked the game but instead ran the ball and the RB fumbled. They could have ended it - GT had no time outs.
GT recovered and just scored a TD with 1 second left to go up 23-20.
Holy shit. That’s a fireable offense.

I don’t know what the replay officials were looking at on the fumble call. The RBs elbow was clearly down before the ball got ripped out.

you dont say? And i should not have stuck my fork in the electrical outlet!
Yeah this is one of those that I think I’m good with cristobal deserving what happened….
But if we’re being honest, that’s a horrendous call by the officials. His elbow is very clearly down before the defender does the rip the ball out thing. Hell I think the umpire even called the play dead on that replay before any fumble. And they just disregarded that.
It looked like the refs wanted a story instead of the obvious call.
All that said, Miami deserved what they got (well the coaches did).
I was 99% sure they weren't going to make the field goal after Arizona called the timeout.
I don't see USC's defense stopping Arizona in overtime.

You need indisputable video evidence. That means a shot showing the elbow down and the ball in possession of the runner.
He’s almost certainly down. But what is the screenshot you can use to prove it?
While the cameras are completely obscured, what you do have is a shot a couple frames before the elbow hits showing he has control of the ball. Then the video clearly showing the elbow hitting before the defender, who is obscuring the camera, does a ball rip, which is clearly what creates the ball coming out. Yes, there’s no screen shot but stitching a couple things together makes it clear evidence I think.
And if you need that screen shot, in college games with less cameras, then the on field officials need to do better calling the game. The umpire raises his hands above his head and calls the play dead before any recovery because he saw the elbow hit. But they allow the fumble hoping replay makes the call for them. Which is fine, As long as you can use clear evidence (elbow down before ball rip move) and not a perfect screen shot.
I'm sure of it and it's pretty hard to beat a team twice in a season.
If it makes you feel any better, went to a wedding yesterday, about 300 people, reception went postal when the DJ played Mr Brightside................then he played it again as the walking out song, postal times two.
That’s a typical wedding song.
“The top two choices for wedding receptions for 2022 are the same as the two all time favourites, but this year third place went to ‘September’ by Earth, Wind & Fire. The karaoke classic ‘Mr. Brightside’ by The Killers appeared in fifth place, closely followed by ‘Shut Up and Dance’ by Walk the Moon.”

What's great about the song is people at the wedding aged 22 to 62 were singing word for word, pretty easy song to learn the words to, but it still was a lot of fun to see.
Went to another wedding about a month ago in a government owned building that has a museum in it, function rooms upstairs (sort of a weird set up, but it ended up being nice) and the DJ did not play the song, he told us he does not own the rights to it, so if he played it in a government owned building and someone dimed him out, he would be banned from playing there again as he was a local DJ and he plays at functions there all the time.
I never knew DJ's had to buy the rights to songs in order to play them in set lists, but as the saying goes, you learn something new everyday
