I was surpsied that Army stayed with Navy as long as they did.

After watching PSU/UM games for the past 13 years, I know holding and "non-holding" when I see it! lol

I remember Lavar Arrington's jersey being ripped 3/4's off his body and a no call under Witvoet's home-brewed crew in Ann Arbor.

yeah....so long as Army wasn't forced to throw the ball a lot, they were ok.

The Army QB has an annoying tendency of finding the guys on the other team.

Congrats to NAVY for completing the Service sweep by beating Army 26-14...

To Army's credit, they DID stick it out and hung with Navy until late in the 4th quarter.

At the half

USC 9

UCLA 7

I gather so did Reggie Ball today. I think that guy actually regressed during his college career.

yeah he did....He looked like the next Michael Vick his freshman and sophomore years and then for whatever reason started looking more and more like a Freshman every year.

He'll either be a 3rd down back or a slot receiver in the NFL.

Imagine what numbers Calvin Johnson would have put up if he had a decent QB throwing to him.

He'd probably win the Heisman honestly.

He'll be the first or second pick in the draft coming up depending on who is picking.

He's 6'5 and is almost as fast as Ted Ginn Jr. He runs great routes and always seems to have separation.

I'm not questioning that. :-)

The play is over, the call has been made and it, likely, won't be absolutely critical to the outcome.
For a really good whine, we'll just have to pay attention for consistency regarding the calls for the rest of the game.

It's not a laughing matter for Detroit fans.

I've had this fantasy about the Patriots packaging their two first rounders in a deal to move up and draft him.

Probably. I'm rooting against USC just so I can watch either Florida or Michigan fans whine that they got jobbed by the BCS...

Agreed. Florida could beat Arkansas 65-10 and they still wouldn't jump Michigan.

I just like to see the BCS fail miserably as often as possible.

I feel the same way.

And incidentally, Florida just may win 65-10. They look a whole lot faster and more aggressive than Arkansas right now.

Nah. They may well win but they're just not built to score that many points (hard to believe I'm saying that about a Florida team).
