No dude, not even close. Go ahead and venture out to some of the comments from national sports commentators and even former pro players.

Why would former pro players be experts on new college football rules? No one gives a shit what the rules were like back when they played.

If that helps you sleep tonight, go for it.

When someone posts a month from now how osu often loses the high profile games, I guarantee someone will blame it on the refs...!just like they are tonight
What are you even talking about? It's a proven fact that OSU would've beaten Miami in regulation if replay was allowed back then.

Only massively controversial in the eyes of Bucknuts. The rest of us saw clearly.

Most Buckeyes are pretty great fans. They seem to be reasonable and just believe in their team. I'd take them over the guys at Tigernet. Across the Field is just drunk and a little unhinged right now. I really want to know where PIBuckeye is. He's the guy who just materialized on this board from the Politics one and was talking all that good shit.

And I'm still looking for you Romeo.

How do I sound like a sore loser? It sucks, my team lost, but I'm fine. In fact, I'm even going so far to predict that Clemson will win next week...
If that is the case, then why were you so concerned that I used "three exclamation points", in my comment #914?

I honestly have no idea what constitutes a catch anymore. Two hands on the ball, no bobble, and he took 3-4 steps. Makes no sense, but it is what it is.
I mean, sure, we still had time to still win the game and did still take the lead, but to think that call was right is just absurd.

I know, it's wild to think guys who have dedicated their entire lives to a sport, as a player or analyst, would have even the foggiest idea of what the rules are. It's obviously much more valid coming from an anonymous poster on a message board.

But he has long blonde braided hair! Btw, what’s with all the black makeup on players faces?

What made it worse is that they overturned the call on the field. If they had ruled it incomplete on the field, fine. I wouldn't like it, but replay should need unquestionable proof on a play to overturn. That clearly did not.

The rules analysts disagree with you.

Again, to the untrained eye, it may have appeared to be a catch. It was quickly overturned.
The rues analyst made no sense. 3 steps is 3 steps. Doesn't matter whether real time or slow mo. To suggest otherwise just made him seem like a dufus.

Why do you keep saying 3 steps?

If frogs could fly


The fact remains, they didn’t and to continually claim but,but,but is the reason we all laugh at osu

Except that it clearly did.

At the very least it's up there with the worst.
If Lawrence doesn't crouch down, we're talking about an amazing, clean hit. The refs should never think it's OK to completely change the outcome of a play based on a decision made by a ball carrier.

Boy, OSU fans are getting dangerously close to Florida fan levels of being sore losers.
