Is a fake slide an acceptable move ?
I don’t think they missed it. Faking one is not obviously beginning one. At any rate, I think we can agree that this probably warrants amending the rules.

Now this might make me change my opinion.

Is a fake slide an acceptable move ?
Unless and until they amend the wording of the rules or give a specific interpretation in the future to cover this, they didn’t miss anything-given that he didn’t actually slide, it’s difficult to argue he “obviously began” one. His play was within the rules, and he knew what he was doing-that’s the definition of outsmarting them.

Lashing out in frustration because you were outsmarted sounds pretty soft to me. And advocating hits that risk penalty or even ejection just to send some sort of message just doubles down on stupid. But I’m sure they’d appreciate the free yards. And it’s Michigan State.

In the situation on this play, obviously not. If he’s actually sliding, I’d thank them for the extra 15 yards. The irony of so many crying internet tears and calling it “pussy, bitch, bush league” is pretty fantastic. Seems to me that those complaining about a heady play are the soft ones.

It was awesome. Zero issue with it.

Final CFP Rankings Announcement Thread
In the last month, they beat a .500 LSU team by 6, outscored an Arkansas team they could not stop to win by a TD, and were an Auburn RB staying in bounds away from a loss. They’re hardly the “usual monster.”

Nah. Pitt looks great now that they’ve gone back to their classic look. And I’d argue this looks better than anything Oregon has rolled out in the last 20 years.

Official Thread for Abortion Demagoguery
You know what’s not cute? The proliferation of using cute, adorable, etc. in a patronizing manner. I literally (not figuratively, I mean it) roll my eyes almost every time I encounter it now. It’s a plague on this board. (Nothing personal DDD, I guess I’m just in the Festivus spirit and airing grievances. Oh and in before the obligatory “it’s cute that you think that” responses.)

Official Thread for Abortion Demagoguery
Yeah, this line of thought stuck out from Justice Sotomayor’s questioning to me. You can argue this question on purely philosophical grounds, as the numerous books on the subject demonstrate. Whether someone finds those arguments compelling is a different matter, but it’s curious to act as if they simply don’t exist.
