Game Thread: Texas @ So Cal 8:30 ET FOX

[TROJAN-MAN]

1. before their 4th and goal (TV showed USC signalling for a TO)
2. before punting on 4th down at their own 2 (TV showed USC signalling for a TO)
3. after they sacked Ehlinger three consecutive times (clock then stopped, we didn't call TO)
4. before the last play of the half (clock then stopped, we didn't call TO)

Time to ask the coach to step down

Being special, thanks for asking

Hey Texas D is causing all kind of havoc on Sc O

This is the Texas D we were expecting all year - this unit was picked preseason to be one of the best in the Big 12

They just got to shake off that fluke moment at the end

USC gave them a gift touchdown that was unexpected.
Texas gave them a gift touchdown right back that was unexpected.


Focus on the other 29:30 where Texas played really well despite bad coaching.

Wanna know something funny? I turned the TV OFF in disgust when Texas got their TD, so I didn't even see that next TD pass for SC. I was looking at the scores online and was thinking to myself... WHERE did that last USC TD come from???

Fuck that, we have coaches (QC coaches) who are required to track this shit. If we didn't call the refs on their bull shit giving them an extra timeout, we don't deserve any sympathy. Coaches, you are letting your players down...

#4Timeouts

 

[Hook'Em0608]

A lot of you are laughing it off, but that's a huge fuck up if they were given 4 timeouts. That last TD doesn't happen without it. Oh well...

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

What a fucking catch.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

It is just the luck of TEXAS the last 7 years

Even when we are playing well, we get screwed by something so ridiculous as FOUR TIMEOUTS.

i think if it happened, we will hear more about it, especially considering it resulted in 7 points.

but at this point, i think the most likely explanation is that we don't know everything as fans. The Texas coaches probably understand exactly what happened and why

Yeah, no laterals, no heave into the endzone, no tricks. Dude just caught a pass at the 30 and ran into the end zone. Texas can't let that happen.

 

[HuskerOC]

Alright alright alright

Only thing I can figure is that one of them was changed to a TV timeout. The TV crew must have just fucked up.

did you notice it yourself, or are you on another board where it was brought up, or watching/listening to another game feed where it was mentioned?

 

[TROJAN-MAN]

Fuck these Refs

Friend texted me right before the TD even happened. No idea if he got it from a board or noticed it himself.

somebody was paying pretty close attention then. Like i said, I think we'd have heard about it from the announcers if there was anything improper happening

Come on man
