So the scUM Oline comes to the line of scrimmage on 4th and inches and the scUM center moves the ball forward several inches as he puts his hand around the ball. Now the line of scrimmage is at or over the first down. An official spots the move, along with several Washington players. The officials stop the play clock, huddle and the ball is moved back to the original spot. No penalty is assessed.

It sure looked like an intentional move by the center. Can one of you rules experts explain why that wasn’t unsportsmanlike conduct or some other violation?

Yeah, I vaugly remember the Bucks getting dinged for the same thing a year or two ago and it was a penalty.

What other time do the referees stop a play before it starts and don't assess a penalty? Maybe if there's an injury?

Id need to see it but the center is given a lot of lattitude to move the ball around to get a proper grip before the snap. Its not like they're going to move the ball up a foot, yell hike and fall on it for a first down. I mean their first motion is to move the ball back a half yard.

This post is a week old: This did not age well, but I don’t want to call anyone out so I omitted the identity of the OP. This isn’t personal; just making a point about the board in general

They aren’t rolling into Columbus with 10 wins. That ship has sailed.

The only way they roll into the ‘Shoe with 9 wins is if they go undefeated from here, which includes beating Oregon

The point here is that, if you find yourself at odds with most of the board, maybe it’s not because the rest of us are overly optimistic.

10 wins was laughable. Hell, 9 wins was laughable.

Look at their remaining schedule:

They are going to be underdogs in at least 4 of these games. Frankly I'd be shocked if they won more than 2 games the rest of the way. They are shit and are ridiculously lucky to have the record that they do have right now.
