They seem much more likely to call it if you are beat and then hold.

If you start the play deliberately holding, you're good to go. Probably easier to hide too.

Same here...watched LOTHT a million times and was always pulling for the Green Monkeys. The Purple Parrots were whack and the Orange Iguanas were just place holders.

I lived and breathed orange iguanas. Gfy.

Back in the country now and watching the DVR I am highly impressed by how the Bucks destroyed Sparty's defense. OSU was far from perfect, turnovers etc., but comfortably crossed the finish line in the end.

MSU also shot themselves on the foot a couple of times on dropped passes, errant throws on 3rd Down.

Not to take anything away from the defense, Grant was like a glove on Lippett for most of the game.

Sparty was the best team in the country says this writer...... if you take away half of the Ohio State game and 1 quarter of the Oregon game. Why do these people get paid?

So basically if you take out the three most important quarters of football against the only good teams they faced? Riiiight

Well then they should have no problem with Baylor then!

Highlights of the game from tOSU

After watching and re-watching the wisky, bama and duck games over and over again, I decided to watch this one last night (with my good friend maker's 46). The last three minutes of the first half were season changing. MSU could have gone up 28-14 after Wilson turned it over in the red zone, but a td run was called back because of a holding call. The holding call did affect the play, as Apple was in position to make a play and was hooked down by the center. Then we score twice on long passes to Thomas and Smith and we go to halftime up 28-21. Huge sequence for the good guys right there, without which I doubt we are where we are today. This game is now in my regular rotation, along with the maker's 46.
