Game Officials: Somewhere Between the PAC-12 and the SEC Would be Ideal
In a late game drive for Utah in the USC-Utah game there was a flag on almost every down it seemed. It was beyond anything I have ever seen.

The Palouse is Not Hell–But You Can Smell the Brimstone From There
Playing in late Oct. or Nov. in the Palouse is hell, not Sept. I have attended late season games there and it sucks.

WSU QB Ward has 4 TDs, beats Colorado St 38-7...Tough Next Game for Ducks
At least it is not Oct. or Nov. I always hate playing WSU as they seem very intense vs UofO.

OMG: A Lanning Quote That Makes Me Hurl...
I was dissipointed when he said Nix is our QB. So the close competition was all hot air? MC would not give his backups playing time and now that error is being repeated.

Trojans Wire: 'We Can Debate USC vs Utah, But Trojans Are Clearly Better Than Oregon'
Can't wait for all the prima dona 5 stars playing for a prima dona coach to build a team. Hah. Only 22 positions and a lot of unhappy players.

Georgia Fan Base Delusional
It is not like plaing Nebraska in the 70s. There is no game we do not stand a chance in now.

Is San Diego State an Answer?
There has always been a minimum academic standard which us why we have not seen schools such as UNLV.

Backlash as Devon Allen DQ'd by 'BS Rule'
And this is an interesting quote from a WP commentor. "It is pretty rare that a sprinter or hurdler is measured with a reaction time less than .120-.125, but it does happen. To capture the outliers, the reaction time considered a false start was set at .100 seconds several decades ago. There has been a fair amount of discussion within the track and field community that the timers in Oregon have been recording "starts" ever so slightly faster than other timing systems. There have been numerous races over the last few days where sprinters have registered "legal" start times better than .110. Allen registered a .101 reaction time in his semifinal heat. Including Allen's false start, several false starts this week were in the .090 - .100 range. These results seem to be too clustered to be explained by coincidence or by athletes trying to gain an advantage. While the result can't be changed now, I think Allen has a legitimate argument and the timing system in use needs to be inspected."

Backlash as Devon Allen DQ'd by 'BS Rule'
This article explains the reaction time standard. Reaction Times and Sprint False Starts CONDELLPARK.COM I have yet to find an article clearly explaining the mechanism within the starting blocks as that might be a weak point.

Backlash as Devon Allen DQ'd by 'BS Rule'
There is no way the equipment in all 8 lanes is calibrated to within a thousandth. Devon does not move any part of his body before the gun. There were also 2 women DQed in their races with just a couple of thousandths. This really needs to be revised.

Hayward and Added Seating for World Championships?
I sure hope it is full.The two big meets so far this year have had surprisingly sparse crowds. Covid requirements?

BYU thrived for decades as the only real team in a conference.

Unbelievable: T&F Coach Robert Johnson Fired
This cannot be about his coaching as it would be difficult to replicate his success.

Will Richardson is Coming Back for Next Season
His role will probably change as they have a real point guard with speed coming in. That is something they have lacked for years.

Coach K’s Final Karma for Unethical Behavior Ends Career
I was finding it especially annoying that the media was pushing the narrative they were. He was never going to be my hero. It reminded of the 60s and 70s promotion of the Dallas Cowboys.

MBB: Oregon Suffers "Gut Wrenching Loss"
If they beat the Washington schools and win 2 Pac 12 tourney games I believe they will be in the NCAA tourney. Tourney "experts" determine nothing.

Canzano Does NOT Like Dana's Bigs...
He has always been a jerk so I pay no attention to anything he says. Wants to create controversy over honest reporting.
