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).

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