Silly tidbit from the BAMA-USC game


I saw the news today about the tape scandal in last weekend's BAMA-USC game.  It ought to be a meaningless item, but considering it involves Steve Spurrier and Nick Saban, we can have a little fun with it (even if there is video of LSU marking a spot for a kick).  So, BAMA's kicker used tape to mark the spot where the ball would be placed before PATs and FG attempts.  The idea of Spurrier filing a complaint about this and Saban resorting to saying over the half the conference does it too just seems like two billionaires bickering over a dime they found in the parking lot.

I hate it when people throw crap on the field, so instead of peppering BAMA with rolls of tape when they take the field, smart-ass fans will have to do other things like use tape to spell out the letters on their signs they show at the game.

I think it was gamesmanship....

Plain and simple…Spurrier being Spurrier. Of course, in the new paranoiac paradigm of the SEC it would explain how Tiffin has become all-world this year. CHEATERZ! WE’RE CHEATERZ!

Do you find...

That now that Spurrier is at South Carolina instead of perennial threat Florida, his antics are more amusing than infuriating? I agree that it was probably gamesmanship, and Spurrier being Spurrier (like Manny being Manny, without the long hair and reggaeton music).

Got banned by Rocky Top Talk in only one real day of posting. Damn, that was a good day!

I agree

His line about “can’t spell Citrus without UT” is still one of the funniest ever.
