Looks like the Boise State player was being unsportsmanlike from the video and from what I have read too. The coach running up and hitting him pretty much justifies that claim. I'm not saying Blount was right for his actions but the player that did that on Boise's team is a just as big of a fool as Blount.
Yeah, I know but I really want to see Colt and the team...maybe I will get a few neighbors together and set up a big screen on the back porch..... DD
I think the reason why none of the Boise State players came to the aid of their teammate was because he was just some scrub who was talking smack when he didn't even get in the game much, if at all. I'm just guessing but it's almost like the other players' reactions were "whoa... what just happened? Who'd he hit? Ohh... that guy. Yea he's a jackass." If they hit the starting QB all hell would have broken loose. Pretty disappointed in the sloppiness of the first two games though. I feel Spurrier is in semi-retirement enjoying his Augusta membership.
Blount is gone thats pretty much assured but darn that punch was lethal. Dude should go into wresslin or MMA and add to that the way he got all the Boise fans up and arms as he was walking out makes him an ideal candidate to be a heel. Boise is running the table but they need some powerhouses to loose a couple of games to sneak into the title picture ala 2 years ago.
Yeah now that I see it again it looked like Blount was provoked. If the guy wanted to talk trash that was fine but don't talk trash and put your hand on the player because that could lead to something ugly and it did.
The best part of Uverse is that they air all the alternate BTN games. I get to watch my Hawks live in SD tomorrow and then in HD on Sunday, if it's a good game. Oregon really looked bad, first game or not - that's not top 20 football. Boise wasn't that impressive either. ESPN was still calling them BCS busters this morning though.
in katy's case, it's not the high road, it's being smart. why risk penalites, suspensions or, at the very least, the physical punishment those kids would have to go through for retaliating?
Just as big? Really? Douchey taunting = bad Throwing a punch = REALLY BAD Just because Blount was taunted doesn't make his decision to throw a punch any more justified.
BEAT NORTHWESTERN STATE Unfortunately, I can't make it because I'm in CS right now... off to see A&M vs. New Mexico instead
Is there a link or something out there where I could catch the Aggies game? I think I have only seen them play 3 times in 2 years.
