It could have easily been 55-27

what would the score have been had we started Relf? We scored 31 in teh second half and the only time they stopped us was when Stallworth fumbled on the one and we took a knee.

They better hope that they don't have to play Georgia Tech in a bowl game.

But the first "TD" by Dixon was not in bounds.

...ineptitude on the part of the rebels.

The rebels were not prepared to play, didn't want to play, & their coach was so disgusted at the prospect of being forced to play the game, he openly admitted he didn't even know who MSU's second string QB was.

If I was associated with a football program that looked this remarkably bad against a bunch of Sly Croom recruits, I would be forced to seriously reassess whether my university even deserved the continuation of a football program.

Really, does that really help your cause? Lets just say we take -7 away ok so we're up 34-27.

Had that been the case, you can bet your smartass football team (who was just taken to the woodshed yesterday) that Mullen would have told Relf to score on your *** again late in the 4th.

But if it comforts you and gives you a warm, fuzzy feeler then keep telling yourself that for the next 364 days.

The ball hit the pylon before his knee or elbow touched the ground. When the TV guys paused the pic they made it look like his knee was down. However, when they restarted it after the pause, his knee and elbow were still moving downward and the ball had already hit the pylon. Touchdown, Anthony Dixon.

That's just one of my pet peeves on TV broadcasting--they do this all the time. They will pause a pic and say someone is down when a ball comes out or before reaching the goal line, but from above on a still pic it just LOOKS like it. Another lower angle (or just noticing what happens after the pause is restarted) will show that the knee is still 2-3 inches above the ground.
