    Cowboy's Punter Laid Out

    The use of hands on the back is not a foul when: a player is making a personal attempt to recover a loose ball the opponent turns away from the blocker when contact is imminent both of the blocker’s hands are on the opponent’s side. (If either hand is on the back, it is a foul.)

    Cowboy's Punter Laid Out

    It looks like a block in the back to me. Its pretty lame to hit someone from behind who isn't even making an attempt to make a play. I guess the punter will learn to protect himself from now on.

    Celtics trading Avery Bradley to the Pistons

    Marcus Morris is a pretty physical defender but he's just not a good rebounder for whatever reason. I imagine Drummond had a big part in it. I don't remember him chucking him too many 3 balls. However, I do remember a lot of ISO/post ups from mid range. He was good at it but no really good...

    Va Tech basketball

    Looks like we pretty much locked into the tournament this year since we are guaranteed to finish .500 in the ACC. It would be nice to get a few more wins to separate us from the log jam in the middle of the ACC though.

    tOfficial NFL Hokies Thread

    I think he will be a late round (5-7) pick and will make a roster or at the very least practice squad. Quarterbacks with his size and arm talent do not grow on trees. Logan Thomas has floated around the NFL as QB this long and Evans had a better year than Logan's sophmore year. That said, I...

    Also I saw Malcolm Delaney play a few nights ago on the Hawks. He's pretty much their backup PG.

    Va Tech basketball

    What an amazing week for hokie sports! Coming back down 24 points to win vs Arkansas and blowing the doors off Duke in basketball. They couldn't stop our guards from getting in the paint. We did a good job rebounding the ball despite the size mismatch. We actually got Duke to play small for a while.

    Also does anyone know why the targeting penalty was reversed? I was watching at a bar.

    We were just letting Arkansas wear themselves out in the first half.

    Why we need a 8 team playoff

    That's the only reason I went for 8 teams. First round, 1-4 would get home games. This way, the better teams would get an advantage.

    Why we need a 8 team playoff

    So you are ok with the current system? Is there anything you would change?

    Why we need a 8 team playoff

    How do you determine the top 6 teams?

    Why we need a 8 team playoff

    Slippery slop fallacy. I'm only arguing for the top 8 only so we can have an objective determination for the playoffs.

    Why we need a 8 team playoff

    No one has perfect record except Western Michigan and Alabama so we should just leave it up to subjective measures? What other sport rewards teams places team based on subjective measures only? Alabama is the best team this year but the best part about sports is the best team doesn't always win.

    Why we need a 8 team playoff

    The reason we need a 8 team playoff is so that teams can earn their spot on the field. This way we don't have to go through any "resume" bs. I don't know any other sport where a committee determines who makes the playoff. CBB doesn't count cause they let in 68 teams and champions get an...

    GG Clemson. We were able to hang tough but it wasn't enough to pull the upset. I'm looking forward to the bowl game.

    The win was awesome. I was still watching but I admit I had given up on them when they went down 15 early. The game also had this:

    Nice win against Nebraska after the let down vs. Texas A&M. Not too worried about the Texas A&M loss. They were just too big for us down low.

    2016 Football season

    I decided to try and count. 1- DE blows by Nijman and Jerod stiff arms him. #7 was close but then gets destroyed by Teller. I don't think I will count this one. 2- #6 never touches Evans but got juked badly. 3- can't see the number but a guy comes off of Phillips block and whiffs. 4- #1 misses...

    Woot woot, another hokies blowout! All board the hype train! Choo choo! The Jerod Evans TD run was just awesome. I think he juked out like half the ECU defense.

    2016 Football season

    I think Teller started but then got a few blocking below the waist 15 yard penalties. Fuenter visually reacted on the last and Teller ended up glued to the bench.

    I'm really glad the Lions pulled it off today but I really don't think the Colts are going to be good this year. A win is a win though.
