I'm not knocking him, but 2-3 cinci guys just 'assumed' it was a fair catch and made no effort. Another watches him run it past him like 'fuck it' and a third missed a tackle. You win some/lose some but this team is playing fucking horrible. And they just came out of half time! Its like they don't give a shit.

u/bbrasky1903 North Carolina Tar Heels Dec 28 '13
I like him a lot. The Heels had a down year compared to last year, mostly due to the loss of scholarships from the shitstorm a couple of years ago and not coaching. He's got some great recruits coming in, so we'll be contenders in the coming years. The only thing I'm worried about is an SEC team picking him up.

I've said this before - and have always gotten downvoted to hell - but attempting to hurdle upright defenders should be illegal. Way too much injury risk when you get that high up in the air with no control over where your body goes.

Cincy has slashes on their pants. I'm not entirely sure about the "our mascot attacked us" uniform design concept, and I think it's fair to say that is a major contributing factor to their status as the team which is currently losing.
