Watching highlights and see that UVa beat Florida State. For those that didn’t see the game or highlights....They were at home, in Charlottesville. Looks like they rallied in the 4th, and in admittedly exciting fashion, stopped FSU on the final play of the game inside their own 5yd line.
UVa fans (students) rushed the field.
With as bad as FSU currently seems to be, it seems ridiculous to me that fans would rush the field.
Question: under what circumstances is it acceptable to rush the field?
I can think of several.....big game/bowl win (nat’l champ, bowl, conf champ), win over rival, epic situation (incredible play, comeback, etc), setting a major record or extending/breaking a streak (like ‘92 win vs UT).
Any others? Did this game fit one of the “acceptable” reasons to storm the field of which I’m unaware?
Just seemed pretty ridiculous.
Arizona goes on a 13-play 99-yard drive to go up by 2 scores.
Every play was a run play and Tech still couldn’t stop it.
Agree...... I was OK with each of the last two at ACS...... OU 2014 and Baylor 2015.Imo, Has to be a major rivalry or big win that will be in the history books. Other than that, it’s trash.
So I guess their defense isn't all it was cracked up to be?
Big 12 went 7-2 this weekend, 2-0 vs. ACC
1-0 vs. SEC, 1-1 vs. B1G, 0-1 vs. PAC.
Meanwhile, the ACC went 4-4 OOC. All 4 wins were over G5/FCS schools and the losses were: Kansas over BC, Citadel overt Georgia Tech, WVU over NC State, and Penn State over Pitt. VT barely squeezed out a 1-TD win over Furnan in Blacksburg
The B1G had a bad day too. Maryland most to Temple. Illinois lost to Eastern Michigan, Michigan State last to Arizona State, and Minnesota barely hung on to beat Georgia Southern by 3. The only bright spots came in Ames with Iowa and with Penn St over Pitt.
Iowa St just darns up that Iowa gave every. freaking. year.
Good thing is, Iowa State doesn’t seem to have a great offense. Still not sure we can score up there outside of a kick return like 2 years agoIowa St just darns up that Iowa gave every. freaking. year.
We've scored 7 points total on offense in the last 8 quarters against Iowa St. That's rough.Good thing is, Iowa State doesn’t seem to have a great offense. Still not sure we can score up there outside of a kick return like 2 years ago
And are 1-1 somehow. Purdy doesn’t look like the same QB this year which is a good thing for usWe've scored 7 points total on offense in the last 8 quarters against Iowa St. That's rough.
Wasn't it called back, though?Good thing is, Iowa State doesn’t seem to have a great offense. Still not sure we can score up there outside of a kick return like 2 years ago
There’s a reason they call that game El AssicoIowa St just darns up that Iowa game every. freaking. year.
This is the second or third acknowledged officiating mistake so far this season relating to end-of-regulation errors. There has also been a lot of problems where time keepers dont stop the clock appropriately for first downs, across multiple games in multiple conferences.https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/27626928/pac-12-refs-erred-last-play-arizona-st-win
As if MSU fans weren’t already miserable about that game...... sheesh.
Officiating has always been pretty spotty, it's just so much more obvious now when a mistake has been made than ever before. There's no doubt that clock errors have been around as long as clocks have been a part of the sport and missed calls have always been prevalent, we just didn't have the technology to be able to catch every single mistake the way we do now.This is the second or third acknowledged officiating mistake so far this season relating to end-of-regulation errors.

I’m not trying to imply anything in particular but officiating across FBS seems noticeably worse this season compared to last.
