*****GAME THREAD: TEXAS vs COLORADO (Valero Alamo Bowl)*****

[Huskie1]

How? He turned his back and didn't make contact to his head and neck?

Launched at a defenseless player. Namely a sliding Qb. Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad he didn’t get tossed. He’s played well

 

[Huskie1]

Thank you!

Case could be made that he launched and the whole defenseless player thing. I've seen less called targeting so I'm glad they didn't but there was certainly enough according to how the rule is written.

More Bijan please Tom

Yeah, I guess I just hate how the rule is written. When a player is launching at the same time a slide is occurring (and makes every attempt to avoid making contact with the head), I don't understand how a penalty can be called.

Even when Bijan gets hit behind the Los he gets positive yards

Agree completely. As a defensive guy, I hate the way it is written and even worse how it is interpreted most times.

Good catch, Brew!

What a play by Thompson.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Folks don't pencil in Hudson Card just yet. This Thompson kid is making all the throws.

 

[okiehorn]

Casey can throw!!! Holy shit. Kid has a awesome arm 

 

[java]

Great job, Casey!

 

[sporty]

I think we forget how good Thompson was in high school.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

TD!

 

[Huskie1]

Thompson looking like a stud so far

 

[Soldierhorn]

Casey looking good. 

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Nice tight spirals. Good velocity. Good touch. We're going to be in good hands.

 

[longhorn_mig]

...I hate to be that guy...but Casey's throws just look better. ?

 

[Soldierhorn]

CT looks to have a better deep ball than Sam

 

[java]

So is Moore!
