*** Baylor vs Sparty Cotton Game Thread ***
- Thread starter cycophagus
- Start date
The Baylor intended receiver was getting tackled (held), which kept him from getting to that ball on the third and goal play.
Michigan State has had some very friendly officiating in this one to say the least.
Who knows how it'll last but B1G trailing in all 3 games now after they started off leading all 3.

On the first down not measured that everyone is upset about..... Wasn't that the first first down after a touchback? So the ball only needed to touch the 35 yard line, it looked like the chain gang was off and the field crew knew what a first down was.
It was more the player stretching the ball then the ref only twisting the laces up. Perhaps that was the exact spot but it looks bad.
Yeah, I don't doubt the spot where the player stretched the ball was a first down, but I wasn't sold that spot is where he was truly down despite forward progress.
I think Briles spends too much time playing Madden. Every play is either HB Dive or 4 Verticals!
When you listen to the commentators, if you hadn't been watching all game or see the score on the screen, you would think MSU is winning.
Also kind of funny when ESPN showed score updates they showed Wisconsin and Minnesota scoring to take the lead - but when they showed the actual score it showed them both down again.
