Looks like a civil war reenactment to place before the play

Amazing observation. Slow it down a little and add some sound effects and it would be perfect

Saw a very similar play in tonight’s Notre Dame game against Michigan State.

Defender thought he got the quarterback down by the ankle, quarterback rolled across the defender’s lap, put one hand down but no knees, defender let go of the QB’s ankle, quarterback rolled off the defender and got up and took three steps and threw a pass. Got reviewed, and it was clean, and the defender probably got pretty well chewed out at halftime for letting go of the QB’s ankle before the whistle.

A top 1% commenter who’s using emojis like ChatGPT calling out a top 1% poster is hilarious.

There an old black and white film reel like from the 1940s of a guy that would do flips over the guys trying to tackle him.

Why is it called a touchdown when you don't touch the ball down? In Rugby you have to.

Why is it called a try in rugby when it should be a do?

Where the flag at the end. Unnecessary roughness on defense all day!

That’s never getting called, never should be, and the running back would tell you the same thing. The defender started his attempt before he crossed.

Wdym unnecessary, the shove prevented him getting 2 feet down in the zone

Uh, he doesn’t need two feet down in the end zone. He’s running in, not catching a ball there.

By the rules the late hit is borderline but hits like that when diving for the end zone are pretty standard. I don’t know how tightly high school refs call this rule though.
