Here are my top 2:
1. Foreman running down the RB to punch the ball out for a touch back. That effort exemplifies team 120.

2. DeBord's trickery for our first TD. I thought Dobbs was making an audible. when the ball was snapped, my first thought was we goofed. It was a thing of beauty that used the 12th man to our advantage. Dobbs was wide open.

What's yours?

Trick play

and Jumper pick

I get that it was a tip drill right to him but I give the dude credit as much as hes blamed and expected to perform hes arguably been one of the better LBs in the SEC over 3 weeks.

Jumper's pick, huh?

That is further down my list. My 3rd is the by A&M (hate it but credit where due).
3. The one handed grab down the sideline. Literally nothing our DB could do to stop it and the Aggie kid made a highlight play. Was he the one that had the one hander against USCe last week?

I didn't think it was targeting. More like a hit on a "defenseless" player. Or is that the same thing?

I like underdogs who play their tails off to realize their dream. Hes been nothing but bashed over his career and now hes arguably one of the better LB during the last 3 weeks filling in. Yes he misses some but what LB doesent.

Sound reasoning there. How bout this... refs had every right to call targeting against #12 on his hit against Berry which caused the fumble.

Do you have any favorite plays?

The hit on Berry was textbook targeting. #12 lead with his helmet all day. The hit Warrior made was a clean block, period. The warrior hit being upheld on replay is absolute garbage. If you're going to call one targeting, call them the same way at other times.

The great plays are too numerous to list. This team just plays its heart out. The defense in the second half was something to behold. Players are dropping like flies and they just keep playing. Unbelievable effort by our guys.

Our defense will only get better with added talent and depth, too. Gonna be fun to watch.

Didn't warrior's helmet hit #12's face mask? BTW, I liked the aggressive play by warrior. Dude lives up to his name...every Nigel I've ever known is a bad man.

Indeed. Dude brings the wood when he hits. He will only get better with time. This defense will be nasty next year considering all the depth we're building with all these injuries.

I just don't understand the call. My beef is with the fact the refs called one, but not the other. Berry was knocked unconscious, he was clearly fencing when he went down. I didn't see the contact to #12's facemask. Looked like a textbook block to me. How else are they supposed to teach it? It's killing the game for defenses. Oh well...

Don't forget #12 enjoying his visit to our water cooler thanks to Bates. Refs dropped the ball on that play.

Foreman was my #1 also.
Everything was happening so fast from there on, his play didn't receive enough attention.
The game was over.. then.. it wasn't.

That has to be the most egregious targeting call to date.

But it's political correct.(as it applies to football) The play was shoulder to shoulder. This blind side call that you see so much is BS. In the middle of a play you ain't blindsided you've had the sh-- knocked out of you. Blindside, to me is when a block, ect. takes place away from the play. However targeting is the in thing now a days and rightfully so. But many interpretation look to onesided. To me they seem to be as much the fault of both players, or the offensive player, not just the defensive player.

The hustle is amazingly. It's hard for me though to ever be really happy with play calling it's just so bad. As far as the trickery...we finally saw them work on something unique but they used it at the worst possible time imo. It was first and goal from the 4. We gashed them running inside all day. We should've waited until a very important moment in the game. We had an important 4th down in the second half that we didn't convert on. Or could've used it in overtime. It was almost certain to work once. We should've used it at a different time imo.

Almost 700 yds of offense and and your're not happy because the play calling is so bad?

You're like a broken record *****ing about Butch being conservative. He gets creative on a call and you ***** because of the timing?

You can't be satisfied can you?

Butch getting in their place kickers's head with those timeouts making him miss. Thought the game turned around there and we had them. So close...

There was another where our receiver was deep (don't remember who) and the defender was all over him, flailing away at his arms, and ended up getting him in a bear hug while the ball was still in the air.

No call. They replayed it, and Danielson deadpanned "tight coverage there."

I think he was kidding? Or is that legal now?

I think that was JJ (who else, right?) over on the sideline. That was top five for me, too. Jennings is an amazing competitor.
