Why Didn't JJ not Drop to the Ground and Hold his Ankle?

Could have taken 4 or 5 minutes to get the board out there to carry him off.

Maybe enough time to get the FG team out there....maybe......

plus its probably unnatural for most atheletes to think of faking an injury. unless you're playing soccer.

Bc they would have run time off...


You cannot have an offensive penalty or offensive player injury within the last seconds.

If you could do this, dont you think EVERY team would do it?

Why did we call a shitty 2 point conversion play, twice.

Why are we trying to pass in field goal range when JJ had been sacked all night.

Why did we not call a time out as soon as possible after 3rd down.

Why was the coaching staff not prepared to send the field goal unit out on the field. It's called foresight.

Why was anyone on LSU fricking signaling a spike with 1 second left to go. There are no tenths of a second in football.

These are all the questions I have before I even think to question any player on the team.

I was reading the paper this morning and JJ said some assistant was signaling to spike the ball when he thought that the field goal team was coming out. Nobody on the field knew what to do

Are you seriously trying to put this on our 19 yr old QB?

Inside the last two minutes of a half, a team must use a timeout for an injury. If the offensive team does not have a timeout, then there is a 10-second runoff. Not sure how they deal with it on the defense. Maybe a delay of game penalty.

Thanks.

I don't get to see many last second to win the game plays.

But I have seen a lot of 'injuries' towards the end of a game where the team doesn't have time outs.

At what point does the 'rule' kick in?

Less than a minute? 30 sec?

08? more along the lines since the zona st game when our punter threw a fake punt inside our own 10 yard line. yea it worked but it was a retarded play based on statistical analysis of similar plays that have happened in the past.

Face it, these bone headed calls are not new, this was just the worst one on top of a hundred others that have happened in the last 5 years, including many from the championship year of 07.

No, not at all.

He would have to be 'coached' to do that.

I may be wrong, but I think only NFL has the 10 second runoff, and CFB does not. Either way, I don't think faking the injury will help either, since the game time will resume as soon as the player is off the field, and the referee signals the start.

When there is 1 second left, and the ball is downed in the field, there is almost impossible to get one more play out, whether the play would be spiking the ball, or snapping the ball for a field goal.

If we hiked the ball on the whistle, should that be good enough to get the play off?
