This is what I told some people. Who honestly videotapes themselves watching a game?
I'm frequently skeptical of homemade video in general. Having two young sons who love America's Funniest Home Videos, I've made a game with my mom of calling out which ones are fake/staged. I'd estimate at least a third of the clips were staged and then sent it. People getting injured/taking hard falls: almost all real. People with little kids doing cute/funny things: frequently staged. People reacting to crazy things/getting scared: about 60/40 staged.

A coach made a decision to put that guy back there for that contingency. Kudos coach Malzahn. Or maybe it's kudos to whoever is in charge of special teams for Auburn.
I would think that it would be standard procedure in that situation (long FG's as time expires for the half/game).
If it wasn't standard procedure before, I'm sure it will be now. haha.
I know there have been games at the FCS level where the defending team has put a player in the endzone on long FG attempts (though I can't remember of the top of my head any actual returns).
Does anyone know, is there a "goaltending" rule on FGs? if the kick is just above the crossbar (but not across it yet), can a defender jump up and swat at it from the endzone?
I THINK that's legal, Jay, but the one who will know for sure is clenzy. A few teams over time have set aside people for that task, but the situation comes up so rarely that they don't seem to last long on rosters. Sort of like the Oakland Athletics' "designated runner" of the mid-'70s, who only lasted a couple of seasons at best.
These things go in cycles. For decades, nobody bothered going for huge returns, and now the last five to ten years, they're all the rage. That'll probably go away soon, and then come back later....

Holy shit, this! And all the blatantly faked ones are in the finals. That show is rigged beyond belief. Funny, but rigged.

Does this game now prove that finesse is superior to old school smashmouth?
Auburn plays a pretty hard-nosed, run heavy kind of offense...

They're run heavy, but their offense is far, far more similar to Urban Meyer's, Rich Rodriguez's, Chip Kelley's, etc. run first spread offenses (what old fogies like BDK and JSO think of as finesse) than a hard-nosed, old school smashmouth run heavy kind of offense like Alabama's or Stanford's.

I asked both of them. They said that you tell the story much better, and since you already have an account here that you should tell us about the plays.
I'm kinda weirded out by the new reports that somebody dumped cremains on the field after the game....

Michigan State blows. They're nowhere near capable of keeping up in scoring. They have no offense, period. Ohio State's defense has sucked all year and is still 12-0.

Don't recall saying te Big Ten was the best conference or anything. Fact is OSU is 12-0 and if/when they win Saturday it's the chipper for them. Then we'll see who is the best.

Well as your image shows, they're 4th in scoring defense at 11 ppg. In a neutral venue I think that definitely gives them a shot to pull it off.
They haven't played anyone with anything resembling Ohio State's offense. Hyde will run all over them. And when he's done, Miller will. In the middle of all that, Miller will throw 2+ TDs

Devin Hester's field goal return was not game ending/winning. Watch the video....there is over 11 minutes left in the game when the return happens and Chicago was up 24-20 at the time of the return, which put them up 31-20. So...again with Hester you have no idea what you are talking about

Cromartie happened at half-time of a Viking/Charger game in Novermber of 2007. I know that one without looking that up because I'm a fucking Viking fan and watched that shit live. I can tell you that the snap came with 4 seconds left in the half, it was a 58 yard attempt by Longwell with the game tied at 7. Hell, just to prove it to you here's the video

Again, not game winning.
Shocking, dal not knowing what the fuck he was talking about and then when told he is wrong still stands behind his stupidity...
I really didn't know reading comprehension was that difficult. OSU's defense has been bad all year. I mentioned that a few times. Their offense wins fucking games. Jesus Horatio Christ read once in a while.
Btw clenz, Miller and Hyde are still running on your defense.

so is every back Michigan has faced this year.
The fact it took 42 points and a failed 2 pt conversion to beat Michigan doesn't speak well of OSU if they face FSU/Auburn/Bama
