Took a screen cap of that last night and saved it to photo bucket this morning. Just posted it into the Wisconsin team thread in the other forum after my Wifi crashed 3 times waiting for the pic to make it into photobucket. Came to post it here...

It's a pose I don't remember seeing before: an instant classic. And, yeah, before finding the other posts, I intended to say "dead surrender cobras."

Have a feeling we'll be finding excuses to post it again from time to time. :biggrin:

I generally have a pretty good feel/instinct for when things aren't going to go our way... they're typically (but not always) low scoring, sludge-fart games.

- Wiscy '03
- Multiple '04 and '11 games
- Pedtards '05
- Pedtards '08
- Wiscy '10
- Sparky '13/'15
- VT '14

It's just a deep pit in my stomach...like I see all that's mounting against us, and feel that we just "don't have it" that night. It happens. Not often, but it happens. I had that feeling for 3.5 quarters last night. Then it went away. Then it came back as we were about to start OT. I just didn't think we would be able to pull it out. I'm sure there were other games I felt it and was wrong, but I can't pinpoint a specific one. I'm glad I was wrong last night, because FUCK WISCONSIN.

I have the same kind of thing--sort of a feeling of dread or heavy depression. Had it before games like the NC vs. FL, LSU. Happily, did NOT have it before the BIG title game vs. Wisconsin, despite the seeming unfortunate circumstances, or before Bama & Oregon. If I get the vibe and can't shake it off, we are pretty much consistently goners. Sometimes things just seem destined.

well, that is untrue actually, he's not a psu fan. that person is clearly a troll that temporarily dropped their cover and used a rational argument. a dangerous game to play.... kind of like telling a hooker your a spy while on mission. pretty sure only archer can pull that kind of thing off.

Sorry I assumed the only low lifes who even bothers posting on BWI are PSU fans.

I watch a lot of CFB. Officiating is pretty bad across the country. The SEC is often comically blatant in how they protect their better teams. The B1G is just on another level of incompetence, and has been for years. I don't know where they find these clowns, but they are really, really bad. I don't think they "protect" anybody, they're just horrible across the board. At some point, somebody has to do something, becaise it's a joke at this point.

couldn't agree more. the biggest issue i have seen with officiating is the epic lack of consistency. not just from crew to crew but even within crews who work together on a regular basis. i always think back to the 1996 rose bowl. what on one side of the field is completely legal and play on is a blatant pass interference on the other. even the announcer called it out as i recall.

i really think upping their pay and making it a year round job where you have them in the off season and can put together a true set of standards would help so much in this area. as much money that goes into these games (facilities/staff and coaches etc...) and is made off of them, it boggles the mind how so much authority over their outcome is put in the hands of what is essentially a seasonal worker. it would be like hiring a ceo to run your fortune 100 company but only for the month of december...

that and i wouldn't feel "as bad" about describing them with ever 4 letter word i can think of as loud as i possibly can during the games if they were full time employees with proper off seasons that involve detailed reviews and in depth training and such. :p

Watched the first half at a bar down here in Orlando. So many butthurt Florida fans it's sickening. I had to leave at halftime and ended up passing out angry on my couch during halftime.

Woke up to a pleasant surprise. Oddly enough, same exact thing happened vs Penn State two years ago with a similar ending. This must be a sign we're on track for championship. Cool.

I don't know that we have discussed it much here but am I understanding the B1G's new set up correctly? Are the onfield officials reviewing their own calls? I heard a quick blurb about it in week 1, some such bull[Mark May] about it helping them explain the calls better to the crowd but I haven't ever seen confirmation.

That seems galacticlly stupid if so.

No. Replay is still conducted by the official in the booth. The on field monitor is just so the head official can see why the booth ruled a particular way and can explain it better, such as Clements fumble as he was going OOB.

That's an overturn that's more difficult to explain secondhand without seeing the video.

Question: Anyone able to screen cap the line-up at @ 5 seconds left in the 3rd?

I've backed it up and looked at it several times. I swear I'm counting 12 guys on the field for Wisky, and no one noticed anything.
