College Football *2015*

A recent decade?? LMAO

byu was the most penalized team last year.
So now you think false starts and off sides are dirty too just cause it's byu?

The chart was showing penalties of the more dirty variety and the frequency of those penalties.... Not total penalties like false starts and holding and pass interference. How did you not comprehend that yourself? You are smarter than that bro.

Of course you probably think when byu does a false start that it is dirty and should be a 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct.
 
So because the Utes get called for penalties it's OK for BYU players to punch dudes in their junk? WTF can't you just say "yeah, he shouldn't have done that."? Why do you have to act like a child and say "but but but they do mean stuff too." Typical BYU/Utah county behavior. Denial and if that doesn't work point your finger.
Who besides thriller is encouraging and supporting the "nut" punch?

You are better than that bro.
 
Can You please just say that he should not have done it? If you do you'll be the first BYU fan in this thread to do so. Never mind I'll just wait for Fish to chime in. carry on.
He should not have done it. Obviously.
He cost his team 15 yards
 
Ummmm

I'd love for someone who has actually played football to weigh in.

Anytime you dive in late like that Boise player you're asking for a fight. Don't want to get punched in the nuts don't take a cheap shot diving in late.

As someone who has actually played and coached football, there are certain nonos. The Boise player broke the first nono rule. I would say that the BYU player obviously made a mistake. But i can't fault him for losing his cool. The Boise guy instigated it.

I love all these double standards Lil Brother fans hold BYU to. If their boys had been in the exact same situation they would be blasting Boise not their own player.
Horrible post thriller.
Btw the byu player didn't throw the punch cause the Boise player came in late.... He threw it cause the Boise guy wouldn't let go of the ball and kept trying to rip it away from the byu player. (Not nearly deserving of a punch, whether in the nuts or not)
 
Watching the replay, when the BYU player initially fell on the ball, there was a split second where it looked like he may bobble the recovery. If you actually have played football, you'd realize that when you're a player going full speed and you think an opposing player may bobble a loose football, you're going to dive at that ball in an effort to disrupt him and hopefully gain possession. By the way, the whistle hadn't blown when the Boise player dived on him. Now, it wasn't the best decision by the Boise player, I'll readily admit that. But at least he could make the argument that the ball was in play and he was going after it.

I also find it hilarious that in an effort to defend the BYU player's actions, you go out of your way to take a shot at Utah. What's the point? Did Utah's players or fans have anything to do with the play? Did Utah fans have anything to do with national articles last week that questioned BYU's reckless and questionable play at times? You want to run around the message board policing every Ute fan that dares mention BYU in any of their posts, yet you trip over yourself to fit Utah in whenever you can.
Good post. I agree.
There is no defense for the punch.

Yet I don't think byu is way dirtier team than all the other teams in college football either. I'm not being bias at all when I say that.

Byu does plenty of unsportsmanlike things just like lots of other teams. They also help their opponents up off the turf and give then taps in the butt/or helmet after good plays sometimes.... Just like all other teams.

They have good moments and bad moments like other teams.
Fwiw I don't think the utes are a dirty team.
 
Serious question (not trolling), but isn't throwing a punch immediate ejection in college and pros? I really don't think it matters where on the body you direct the punch. I was actually surprised to see the BYU player stay in the game once the flag was thrown. So did the refs miss a call on an ejection, or can you throw a punch and stay in the game so long as it's not thrown at somebody's head?

Serious question
Do you somehow blame byu for the ref not throwing the player out of the game?
You are usually more level headed than most so I give you the benefit of the doubt but with posters like ugli I bet he blames the byu player for not volunteering to leave the game for what he had done
 
I think ucla will win pretty easily and knock byu from the polls..... I think the magic runs out in that game.

I think byu might beat Michigan though.... Will be a close game imo

I don't think losing to #10 UCLA will bump BYU completely out unless the score is like 52-7. They'll fall to like 25. At this point in the season I don't see too many teams having the resume to bump a team that has beat a P5 and the best of the G5(that was ranked) with their only loss to a top 10 team. BYU could beat Michigan but I don't think they will. Michigan has a very athletic secondary to neutralize BYU's WRs. I think Michigan controls the tempo and makes it physical on the ground type game. Michigan has the edge over BYU in that kind of game.

Why did you say byu fans (plural) support it? Thriller is one person.

Be a little bit honest at least

The first assumption would be that the more you're getting caught, the more you're probably doing that isn't getting caught. The second assumption is that the stuff that is blatant is many times worse than a little quarter punch to the nuts anyway. Not that guys always mean to do it, but if I'm choosing, I'll take the quarter punch to the nuts over somebody blowing me up on a late hit or something. Way worse.

^This sounds like excusing it to me,(edited post too). I swear there were more posts supporting but maybe I'm just off.
 
I'm a huge byu fan who always gives props to the utes and compliments their team and players often.

Some people have a rare ability to control their emotions and use critical thinking, logic, and even compassion when discussing/watching college football games.

You don't count. You are basically a space alien and the least zoob-ish byu fan I have ever met.

I'm waiting for the day you finally become a full on Utes fan, Fishbro.
 
So now you think false starts and off sides are dirty too just cause it's byu?

The chart was showing penalties of the more dirty variety and the frequency of those penalties.... Not total penalties like false starts and holding and pass interference. How did you not comprehend that yourself? You are smarter than that bro.

Of course you probably think when byu does a false start that it is dirty and should be a 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct.

Was mainly laughing at the fact that the chart is from "a recent decade". Meaning it's Probly from the 90's or early 2000's and irrelevant to the current discussion we are having.

Id be surprised if byu wasn't up there in personal fouls last year, but that is besides the point When there are dozens of byu cheap shot videos available to show byu's dirtiness.
 
Who besides thriller is encouraging and supporting the "nut" punch?

You are better than that bro.

Honestly fish, you are the only one that hasn't tried to say, "it happens every single play."

If it happens every play, super crazy that none of the 54 cameras filming every college football games ever catch any of the thousands upon thousands of nut punches every year.
