It just send the message to his team that they are there to WIN and that he believes in them. Maybe not the brightest move because they could be 3 to 0 right now but it still showed some balls.

BTW, flip to the Deuce and watch this game (FAU/Michigan State) - FAU looks great and I have a great feeling about this game.

It was a 43 yarder, actually.

And it was raining and sloppy. So much so that when they tried a much shorter field goal later, the snap was bobbled. And that aborted field goal was set up by a fumbled shotgun snap mishandled by the Michigan State QB.

You are 100% right that FAU is there playing to win. Even though their first three series haven't been that productive in terms of points, I expect they'll still keep trying to win.

...and why shouldn't they play to win? Capin' Kangaroo and his merry bunch of misfits are the darlings of the sbc, plus weather is helping them some, I think.

What a killer penalty on the second or third play of the game. FAU broke a 74-yard touchdown run, but it was called back by a holding penalty against a wide receiver. In replay it looked like the hold was behind the play. He just grabbed the DB's shirt when the DB turned to pursue the runningback flying past.

The score should be 10-7, FAU right now. FAU had a 74 yard TD called back for a very questionable "hold"... and then they muffed the snap on a chip shot field goal. I just do not understand why FAU would agree to let Big Ten refs call this game. I am in the camp that thinks OOC games should be called by neutral conference refs.

      It was a huge issue in the NBA for a bit so they came out and said an offensive player swinging their arms before a shot is not part of a natural shooting motion and therefore should not be considered a shooting foul. It seems to happen less now. I don't watch every game though. https://videorulebook.nba.com/archive/foul-not-in-the-act-of-shooting-foul-occurs-on-side-to-side-motion-during-rip-thru/

      No one knows the specifics of the deal, it's not public knowledge. People are waiting for this year's tax returns so they can see the public data that shows how much each school made, and then see how much it changes over the next few years. So unfortunately all we know is that by the end of the contract everyone will be making the same amount, and that's it.

      Sissoko has just been a different player in conference and I'm here for it. Lorient of course was MVP, but Massie and Floyd need some props for coming through this game. We really need for them to give us 6-8 points a game consistently and we are going to be looking good. Horrible foul call on Walker on that 3. Also they need to change the rules where you can't move your arm into a defenders hands that are already there to create contact for a foul, that's absurd. You can't even stand there as a defender? It needs to end.

      I don’t want to be that guy, but we have a good crowd for a great game and our defense was pretty much amazing all night. How do you sit in your hands and not get into the game? My wife and dogs thought I was crazy watching at home cheering on the good guys. I just don’t get it. The Pit should have been rocking. Students looked great, @greenjoe and I believe @Matt from A700 from shown a few times up and active along with others, but overall our crowd had got to get loud. I was never a fan of how NBA announcers cue the crowds but we may need to get Rob Coffee to start some “D-Fense” chants.
