Anybody get a number of how many flops there was last night?

[rbvol]

Sure seemed like a lot!

Seemed like about 45 minutes to an hours worth. AND NOT JUST O M!!
I saw a TN player trying struggle off the field and Hip motion him to get down.
The announcers had a fix for this problem: if a players goes down, he must stay out for the whole series. That would stop a lot of the problem.

I saw somewhere someone said it was 23 OM “injuries”. Not sure how accurate that is though. I know it was a lot but didn’t think it was that many.

I read 23 for Ole Miss, which averages out to 1 "injury" for every 3.5 plays they ran (101 total).

How every many players they have in scholarship on defense.

Vast majority of those “injuries” occurred when TN was on offense which was a total of 79 plays.

I’ve not rewatched to confirm, but was told there were 17 “injuries” for OM in the 2nd half. What would be interesting is to see what their injury count has been in other games this year.

More flops than bottles they had to pick up off the field

That averages out to 1 for every 4 plays. Still insane.

It was absurd.

1 of their D players laid down rolled around for about a minute helped off and then play resumed and he dashed back out here next play. I thought to myself, the guy was acting like he was about dead one play ago LOL. Think it was #73.

 

[sechamp2012]

I've heard the Coach had a code word he shouted when he wanted someone to go down to slow the momentum/flow. A free timeout to rest and sub D players 1 every 4 plays.

Kiffin is a low class douchebag but in reality if this were Bama or Georgia the officials would have “encouraged” for this not to happen.

I wonder how they call "the flop" and decide who is going down? On field call or from the sideline? Wish someone could catch the signal if it comes from the sideline.

5 yard penalty for delay of game each instance

 

[Tnphil]

Here you go...

 

[CAVPUT]

We might not like it, but there's no rule in place to stop it. While it might not be in good sportsmanship, it works and Ole Miss took advantage of it.

And not one was an offensive player even though they ran 95 plays. One would think there would be one cramp on the offensive side.....

Yes and maybe.

 

[CO Vol]

On game rewatch, I counted 11 for Ole Miss defense for the whole game. I think it was 5 at halftime.

 

[Volview]

Needs to be a rule change...If you are injured you stay out for the series. Safer for the players and would cut down on flops.

Football is a chess game, I would use any grey matter area possible to win as a coach.

If accurate that’s 1 OM D flop for every 7 VOL O plays. That’s significant.

Any count of many “flops” the VOL D had?
