was running well. Why stop running it? A-rod can’t help himself. When it’s 4th and 1, and BYU is averaging 7 yds/rush, A-rod will opt for the double reverse tackle option pass. Genius.

Does anybody else think that the Hinkley Ropati INT

Do the rules specify if it's accidental is ok?

Mississippi

Oct 19, 4:59pm

If they think it's incidental contact. But, it was defensive holding before that

Oct 19, 5:01pm

It shouldn’t have been called at all. That was an ARod special. We were moving

Poorly designed play to middle of the field, even more poorly executed

Mitty

Oct 19, 5:04pm

I’m sure you had the same thought on the TD to LJ last week

Charles Darwin

Oct 19, 5:09pm

That was a better play design, less risky, and better executed

Mitty

Oct 19, 5:10pm

Less risky? He threw into triple coverage

SUAVO

Oct 19, 10:18pm

And then way underthrew it

Of course, way less risky to go to the sideline than to the middle.

Mitty

Not when the ball is thrown short. If you take risk out of a sideline throw it's

That one should have been picked too

Many coaches like to put stuff on film just to make Ds prepare for it. ARod

Lol. Just pretend that ARod trick plays never work

MaxxPower

Not even sure it was incidental, no penalty but horrible throw.

PhilPete

It wasn’t close to the receiver because of the contact by the defender that

It’s useless- argued the same point last night but I’m not one of the smart

Bushmaster

Oct 19, 5:09pm

I didn’t say that. I don’t think the pass into essentially triple coverage on

cougaman

Oct 19, 5:19pm

I agree with you. Ropati didn’t realize with the speed of the game it

Bushmaster

Oct 19, 5:27pm

...and also throwing it into the wrong zip code

cajuncoug

Oct 19, 6:52pm

I could be wrong, but if you go back and watch the play, the ball didn’t even get to the tripped receiver if it went way

The receiver fell down. It wasn’t a good throw, but the receiver would have been

cougaman

Oct 19, 7:41pm

So you didn’t think that the pass was underthrown And intercepted before it even got to the tripped receiver?

KYU

Oct 19, 8:18pm

What does that even mean? Let me make this simple.

cougaman

Oct 19, 9:05pm

It’s obviously not simple if we both obviously are struggling to comprehend what the other is thinking.

KYU

1:21am

The ball was 50 feet in the air. The receiver would have adjusted and been close

cougaman

Thanks for sharing your perspective.

KYU

It should have been holding.

Cnation

Ropati should’ve been called for a bad decision and even worse throw

Rhubarb

Oct 19, 5:02pm

I think you could have called holding before the ball was thrown but it was a

Charles Darwin

Oct 19, 5:08pm

Bad call. BYU just need to run the ball before getting cute. Bad execution.

Benfica1

Oct 19, 5:08pm

Contact occurred before ball was thrown. He grabbed Lassiter as he saw the play

RalphWiggam

Oct 19, 5:14pm

Your backup RB should never be throwing a pass, ever

RenoCoug

It was a terrible play call but there was a defensive hold. Long before the ball

Last week when Kingston got lucky on the double pass, he said ...

I didn't like the play call

ElmerAlbert

That INT was on ARod. Absolutely terrible play call.

WillsPitStop

We have enough guys that can sling the ball.

DizzyDean

Oct 19, 7:35pm

It honestly looked like he was playing 500 and just lofted it up for anyone.

Blew

Oct 19, 7:38pm

No idea. They only showed it one time. No replay. Super annoying

Stucoug83

Oct 19, 8:23pm

Looked like a horrible horrible throw

BYU4eVeR

Oct 19, 11:21pm

On a non-QB pass play they are taught not to throw if covered

Definitely not
