@Nklaiste99 It was a foul, they didn't need to call it since the game was over, but technically it was the correct call... to the delight of dallas bettors and obviously Houston bettors not happy. Close game though. I thought that late Houston 3 pointer sealed it. Sengun is a monster, never heard of him until tonight but he was the only reason Houston even had a chance to cover. Only 21 too |

Mannnn as soon as the jets scored to make it 42-16 i had a bad feeling. Colts pretty much gave up on both sides of the ball. No one within 10 yards of receivers on defense every play. Reminded me of the week 1 lions vs. 49ers game. Only difference, lions actually recovered their onside kick and got the cover after being down 28. Luckily had the lions in that one, probably the most unlikely backdoor cover I've ever experienced. Thought for sure i'd be on the business end of this one once the jets cut it to 15. Tipped and picked!!! |

Defensive rebounding is not going well

If they could make a lay up, they should be leading right now

Rockets 14+ point favorites in back to back games, Harden scores 50+ in both, and they lose both. That's pretty nuts.

It appears you're right. That was Orlando's fifth foul of the quarter according to ESPN's play by play. Should have been two free throws and a cover for Portland. I got a push, but apparently should have won. That's pretty bad by the refs. Unreal if I'm seeing that right.

It turned out they had a foul to give. 2 seconds left after that, 5 point game, Orlando just let it go.

If OU, Clemson and Notre Dame all run the table, an undefeated Wisconsin could be out. If one of those three slips up, then it could be between Georgia and Wisconsin for the last spot. If more than one slips up, and Wisconsin runs the table, Wisconsin would be in at 13-0. But if Wisconsin slips up, I don't see how the Big Ten gets a team in, despite the fact that they've had three to four teams ranked in the top ten for most of the season.

CASE CLOSED: the fans dont agree either with the pitching duels. Forget about the juiced balls argument, I have never seen such an ebb and flow between teams in my WS experiences. So many times it looked like the game was over and we're tied again. Great game IRREGARDLESS of the score. Neither team at any point gave up. Gimmicks like the DH and the wild card and juiced balls and juiced players bring in more casual fans and more money, which is why the owners have supported those things. That doesn't mean those things are better for the purity or integrity of the game. They make the game better for people who like artificial B.S. -- most people -- but not for the rest of us. |

And obviously there have been quite a few home runs. |

Not to mention the game hit the 4 hour mark in the 8th inning

I agree, it's boring and stupid. It's like what baseball would be if they moved the fences in 100 feet. Now they make the ball slicker for the World Series so the pitchers can't get break on their sliders just to have more home runs but it's just artificial B.S.

The color announcer must have BIG money on Ohio State cause he is crying about every call

That was clearly a touchdown despite what the biased announcers said. It was easy to see he had it when he hit the ground, and once he goes down, the play is dead so it doesn't matter what happens after that. And it was pass interference.

4th and 8 at the 25 yard line and Ohio State goes for it? Why?
