I disagree. The ball touched the pylon prior to coming loose. The replay showed that, the announcer saw it that way and so did the official.
They never did show a view of the ball crossing the plane of the goal line. Our living thought it crosses the line and should have been a TD

A younger, hungrier Matt Rhule would be fine, but he's become rich, fat and under motivated.
He's only 50. Basically in the prime of his career. A younger Matt Rhule won the AAC with Temple and that's it. He was never that great. Just very overrated.

Ya he’s only 21 years old and has a good shot to win heisman next year. Hes turrible lol
Manning has really improved since the OSU game. Definitely a top 5bHeisman candidate in 2026 if h can stay healthy. Certainlybseens like a tough player.

Underwood is very talented and playing like the true Freshman he is against a strong defense. I expect he'll be more under control next year.

Honestly, the backwards hat indicates to me that he is still trying, but he doesn’t know what to do to connect with his players. He is clearly past his peak as a coach.

I suspect the same will be true of BGJ.

Manning has certainly improved a lot and could be a handful next year

He leaves with honor, and an excellent reputation. No color analyst is perfect, and he's made his mistakes over the years. But more often than not, he was on top of things. And he retires with honor, while being held in high regard by most. And he always brought dignity to the broadcast booth, and the TV coverage.
