He tried to in Austin.

Weak call.,

Announcers trying to sell this an inconclusive evidence when screen shot shows GT player with ball in his hands before Georgia back's butt hits the ground.

That is a fumble.

Are SEC announcers really complaining about Georgia having to play a meaningful game in November?

That wreck be ramblin'!

LSU down 26-25 at the half to future Texas patsy opponent Northwestern State. Don't get too excited. Northwestern State had an 8 point lead in the second half against OU and lost by 20 or so.

More bad strategy shown in the Purdue-Mississippi game. Purdue was up 2 and took possession with 45 seconds to go. Even if it ran the shot clock all the way down, Mississippi would get a chance with 15 seconds or more. So Purdue ran the clock down without even trying to run a play until the shot clock was down to five seconds. One pass to a guy who was stripped, Mississippi went down and tied it on a break. Purdue might still win here because it grabbed an offensive rebound of a terrible shot, and is up a basket with .6 seconds left, but I will never understand why coaches don't try to run their full offense in the closing seconds. I see so many empty possessions in those situations that I have to think teams are not doing themselves any favors by killing as much clock as they can instead of really trying to score.

So much for NC State's ability to stem opponent's 3 point shooting. BYU is torching the Wolfpack 52-32 and the nets 9/15 bta with 14:56 left. Awful week for our non-conference SOS with UConn getting swept in Maui and looking like NC State will be swept in San Diego.

I won't answer for the football team, but I will answer for other entities: The University and its fans are thankful it isn't A&M. The State is thankful it isn't Oklahoma.

Tulane is playing really dumb ball. Third bomb in four offensive plays. One incomplete. One complete with a fumble. One INT. Tulane was moving so well before just chucking it deep. Now it is probably dead.

Another 3 and out. Tulane not dead yet.

Announcers now saying original ruling on the field was a fumble. That was the right call, btw.

Correction. Catch and fumble.

Call stands.

Announcer thinks ref will punt and say stands rather than confirmed. Big 12 money pouring into the AAC review booth.

Two bombs. One incomplete. One ruled complete, but a review. Looks like he took two steps before ball came out, but the question is whether he knee hit before he lost control. Could be a fumble recovered by Memphis. Call on the field was catch and down.

Tulane forced a three and out with a coverage sack. We suddenly have a game here.

Memphis ran half of its defense on the field just before the snap, but Tulane still got the snap off and scored. Ten point game with 13:29 left.

Now a PI in the end zone. Go Memphis D!

Then a second late hit on the same play. Two personal fouls imposed on the same play.

Another gift. Defender whacked scrambling qb when he was three steps out of bounds. 15 yards. Moronic.

Memphis gave Tulane a huge gift by trying a 3rd and goal from the one before letting the third quarter end. Didn't convert. Then committed procedure penalty, so had to kick fg. Saved Tulane 37 seconds, and wound up with 3 instead of 7. Still a three score game, so the Wave better get moving here.

Tulane is totally crapping the bed tonight. Down 14, and Memphis driving with little resistance. Big third down here though. Memphis in fg range, but keeping the clock moving matters. Complete on an out pattern first down near the red zone.

Purdue 71-61, thanks to owning the paint and shutting down HH in the second half. Arky down 49-34 at the half.
