Grandview by 7.
QB is too good. EC has a very good and physical defense, but I don't see them getting enough pressure on the QB to force him into making bad decisions with the football. Offensively, the Bucs will put up points in bunches, which will keep them in the game and make it a great ballgame. EC won't be able to run the ball unless they open up lanes with a successful passing attack. Grandview has beaten arguably the two best rushing offenses in the state in class 3A (Woodville and Franklin) in consecutive weeks. It'll be a great game. Go Bucs! Not too shabby for a "down" year lol
I bet longball feels pretty silly lol
Franklin and Woodville have a totally different rushing scheme than EC. And speed kills, these two backs are crazy fast!

I watched the replay of this down. The clock operator watches the official. He’s actually on the field, not in the booth, following beside the down marker. The officials mechanic here is to kill the play while swinging his arm to keep the clock moving, signaling the player was tackled in bounds. This play actually could have had a review, but that is how officials are taught to do it. Just a force of habit when it’s late. Good thing it didn’t cost us. Except having to listen to LSU fans cry about it.

I don’t think they would get in either way unless mass chaos happens Saturday and everyone loses. Too much money at stake and the big guys are always going to make the playoff before a Group of 5 team.
Any time Ohio St, Oklahoma, Texas, Bama, Michigan, Notre Dame, and maybe 1 or 2 others are in line, they will go over UCF every single time. Ex- tOSU jumping Baylor and Tcu a few years ago. Money will always win out
The issue this year is they may to pick between Ohio St and Oklahoma which will have very similar resumes and both AD’s are on the selection committee. They will both have to leave the room for this discussion, so it may come down to who is better friends with the other 11.
Here was my thinking. Michigan got embarrassed last week against OSU. After getting beat by Notre Dame earlier. Which I think of the two played now, Michigan would beat them. If Ohio State, OU, and Georgia lose I think the commitee would have legitimately looked at UCF. I know what the deal with them is, but still it’s Division 1 FBS football. And they have deserve their chance imo. Bc of OSU, OU, and Georgia lose. Who’s getting that 4th spot? Michigan with 2 losses? OSU with only two losses?
I don’t predict this happening, but it would be interesting if this scenario played out.

So UGA, ou, and tOSU all lose and Michigan is right back in the mix over UCF. They just did that because Milton is out. Ray Charles can see that.
I’m really upset about Milton being out. Thought coming down ten stretch UCF had a legit shot of getting in.

A name that will probably be thrown around for the Tech job: Seth Littrell UNT coach. Mean Green went 1-11 the year before he was hired. He’s 23-16, and will make his 3rd straight bowl appearance, in 3 years as HC.

^Agree with the assessment of the incomplete/fumble play. Buddy of mine (LSU fan) was at the game. He text me and asked what it looked like to me on the few replays they showed. I told him whatever team you are pulling for is what you’ll see. He had both feet down, but didn’t “tuck” or wasn’t quite to the point of tucking the ball away. I don’t think he had taken a 3rd step, maybe he did but I’d have to watch the replay again. So of course looked to me like he didn’t make a “football move”. But that could be the maroon color glasses.
Same thing. I texted a buddy and asked, he is very knowledgeable of the game, he is neither and Aggie or a Tiger. He said incomplete, but close. so I knew it could have gone either way. If they let it play out and then review, LSU probably wins.

Here are my thoughts on the controversial plays.
1. Mond down before interception.
It was very close, but his knee does appear down when he gains possession of the ball. Think this was the correct call. The officials did a good job by allowing the play to play out, and not killing it.
2. 4th and 18
I'm not even discussing this one, because it was clearly just a mistake of the TV first down line.
3. Spike with 3 seconds
Correct call. When the clock is under three is when the rule states they can not spike it. After review the it was clear he got the spike off in time.
4. Illegal Formation
It is all about interpretation, but I promise you can go back and look at 90% of the hurry up spikes and a lot of teams are in illegal formations. It happens so fast it is missed by the officials. And I'm not even sure it was an illegal formation.
5. Sternberger incomplete pass
This was a bang-bang play. And on a bang-bang play officials are taught to call this an incomplete pass. It was no doubt close, but Sternberger doesn't ever seem to make a catch by the definition of the rule. I could see this one going either way. Honestly if the official rules it a fumble, I don't think video could have overturned it either way. This was by far the closest call.
6. Pass Interference in 7OT
I thought it was a clear DPI. He had a grasp on Rogers shoulder pad and clearly impeded him from turning towards the ball.
The only play I think that was even close was the fumble/incomplete pass. The rest were clear to me. Don't get me wrong I understand officials make mistakes. I still think the Clemson fumble was out of bounds, but the call went against us. That's what you call human error. obviously the fumble/incomplete pass was so close that video didn't even think they could review it, or they thought it was clearly a incomplete pass. I think by how the officials are taught to officiate that play, it was the correct call.
And I know you're going to say it's easy for me to say when A&M won, but I promise I would say this same thing had the calls been reversed.

Yoe fans seem to think this isn’t going to be close. I hope my Bucs prove them wrong!

I was at the game. It was unreal. Glad I can say I witnessed history. I have a longer post I’m going to post about the officiating and the few controversies. I just want to say hell of a job by the Ags! They played Clemson to a failed two point conversion, and beat LSU. As for the Auburn and Miss St games, those are inexcusable. I see a good future moving forward. Ready for the bowl game!
-
Can the Big Bucs finally knock off the Yoemen? I think this team gets it done and makes the longest run in EC school history. Predictions?
-
Great game by the Bucs! Offensive kept rolling, and the defense stepped up and made enough plays. Get healthy and get ready for Round 3, and a chance to get farther than any other EC team.
-
Gameday, let’s go Bucs!

hornetsdad . what determines favorite vs underdog ? ec is 9-1 with a loss to woodville and crockett is 7-3 with losses to buffalo, diboll and franklin. mr aggiesarewe says he saw both teams play and EC is better. if we're basing our comparisons on this season, then EC may be the favorite by record, but based on historical data, crockett is the favorite in this game as they have quite a bit more success in post season play than EC
You must be a Cowboys fan?? Living in the past lol
