Failed Bridge 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2006 Incomplete, because he didn't hang on when he hit the ground. That would've been incomplete if a receiver had done that, too. ground can't cause a fumble. He had possession, hit the ground and the impact caused it to pop out. He needs to make a football move before he has possession. He couldn't do that. He did. He jumped up, caught it in the air, twisted his body, stumbled back and hit the ground.

None of which constitutes making a football move after the catch. If he hits the ground, he needs to hang onto the ball; if he stays upright, he needs to make a move to run with the ball.

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2006 Alright guys it's a really moot point. USC is probably going to go to the running game in the second half b/c they're having good success with it. I fear Carroll's halftime adjustments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2006 USC is going to need a near perfect second half. Texas played like shit for the first 20 minutes and yet they are up 16-10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2006 16-10 is a manageable deficit. Getting within a TD is really big for USC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2006 USC got a nice field goal there but jesus. I think Carroll will adjust still and it scares the hell out of me. Texas is playing with intensity and I wonder if they can keep it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sfaJack 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2006 Why is Dama so convinced Pete Carroll is some kind of unbeatable genius? I'd say much of his success is due to the unbelieveable talent he has. Being an excellent recruiter doesn't make one a genius. See: Brown, Mack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
