September 10, 20232 yr Kelvin Banks gave a little something there too. If Majors could have reached the end quicker for a cleaner block that’s a big hitter. That’s one of the toughest things a C gets asked to go so I’m not going to be overly critical of not doing better there.

September 10, 20232 yr Dude hit the ground like he was questioning his life choices. Glad to see players with a nasty streak.
September 10, 20232 yr There was a fair bit of "it ain't Holding, if the ref don't throw his flag" from our guys. That, and I think both times Bama was drawn offside at critical points came from a quick hand squeeze - the refs couldn't see any movement because there was none to be seen... except by the opposing DL. About time, I say.

Daniel Cruz is playing center for his high school team for the first time in his career to prepare him for college. He’s already pulling and getting second level after only 2 games.

September 10, 20232 yr Remember when Colt got knocked on his ass after the whistle against OU and the linemen just stood there? That might be a good way for a defender to get his soul separated from his body at this point. Edited September 10, 20232 yr by Doc Daneeka
September 10, 20232 yr Damn, OL seems to have some bad intentions. Good to see From where we thought we were a week ago, to that performance against a highly touted defense….I am stunned. Edited September 10, 20232 yr by Lhorn

It didn’t happen at the end.
September 10, 20232 yr I didn't see Neto much in this game, did he play at all?I didn't see him at all and I know he didn't catch a ball. Maybe he played on special teams but I believe Crawford and Robinson are the gunners.
September 10, 20232 yr I didn't see him at all and I know he didn't catch a ball. Maybe he played on special teams but I believe Crawford and Robinson are the gunners. Can confirm that Neto also did not throw a touchdown pass.

September 10, 20232 yr Can confirm that Neto also did not throw a touchdown pass. Shit, wasn't looking for that.
September 11, 20232 yr Daniel Cruz is playing center for his high school team for the first time in his career to prepare him for college. He’s already pulling and getting second level after only 2 games. That’s, uh, not at all what Majors was asked to do there but cool story bro
September 11, 20232 yr So fucking proud of the O-Line last night. Gonna have to rewatch the game as I was a pacing fool last night.

September 11, 20232 yr Just watching the post game presser with Sark on LHN. No false starts. I didn’t even think about that last night. Hell yes!
September 11, 20232 yr This is the full clip of DJ manhandling that LBer. He drove him 10 yards. I'm in love. https://twitter.com/SECLonghorns/status/1701245450496421924?s=20 Edited September 11, 20232 yr by Post Oak fuckin embed. just click on the link and find 52

September 11, 20232 yr Lol how did he not get flagged for that? Looked like the play had been over and he shoved him across guys getting. That’s the type of attitude OLinemen need.

September 13, 20232 yr I’m also surprised no flag.I’m more surprised at someone in a Longhorn uni with that kind of bad attitude. Fuck yes.
September 13, 20232 yr On the DJ play, Bama fans are upset for there not being a flag. They are even more upset that no Bama player went to the guy’s defense and got in DJ’s face.

September 14, 20232 yr That gif is unfortunately too low resolution to see how abrupt a movement it was. He had his hand fully open, then snapped it shut into a fist.

Question for folks better familiar with the rules: is this a penalty of caught? I've gone through them and since the ball doesn't move, it doesn't seem to technically be a penalty. But I wasn't sure if there was somewhere a general rule that the center can't trick the defense at all.

September 14, 20232 yr It should have been called a false start if noticed by a ref. Rule 7-2-3 says it's a false start if "3. A restricted lineman mov(es) their hands(s) or mak(es) any quick movement." Subrule 4 also says any quick jerky movement is a false start. It was sneaky but ultimately illegal.

You forgot to say “and fucking awesome.”
September 14, 20232 yr So does "mov(es) their hands(s)" mean while in a two point stance or does it only apply to 3 and 4 point stances? Regardless, if the ref can't see you, it's not a penalty.
September 14, 20232 yr That's a good point. I think restricted means with a hand on the ground, but the quick jerky movement rule still applies. Not to mention it was clearly intended to simulate the snap. Even if he knew it was illegal ahead of time it was well worth the risk there. If it works we win. If caught we punt and 95%+ win. Edited September 14, 20232 yr by Huckleberry
September 14, 20232 yr We will never know, but my guess is we were comfortable taking the delay of game or false start if it came to that and punting to force Bama to go the length of the field down 10 with 2 minutes left or whatever. It was a smart gamble.
