OH THOSE TRICKY WOLVERINES

Capital One Citrus Bowl's looking a lot like a Big 12 game.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Forget Jonny Football and Mantei Teo and the other scrub they invited to NYC for the Heisman.  This is the best player in the country.

No shit.  He was a total beast last year, and as much as I love my little stout Irish Samoan-That-Could, Clowney is hands down the best defensive game changer in the game. 
Play of the game, considering the bullshit that had just occurred prior to that.

QuoteWithin seconds, word of the hit had traveled around the world on Twitter. Within minutes, people across the country stared at their phones or their tablets and watched Clowney splatter Smith on a continuous loop. A debate raged as to where the hit ranked in the pantheon of football collisions. The closest comparison was the montage of Forest Whitaker's Jefferson in Fast Times at Ridgemont High after his car was vandalized.

Personally, I like the play-by-play from the MNF crew.  Just listen to the beauty of it all.

That play was the biggest punch-in-the-face Michigan has taken since Appalachian State in TEH GREATEST UPSET OF ALL TIME.  :P

Tirico was whining like a bitch about the jacked up spot/measurement/call on the play before.  That was a hilarious ending to that game.  :lol:  There were at least three defenders all around the WR, who was still wide open.

Who the hell in the country wasn't?  Even Tom Brady couldn't get that sort of call.  And the smirking on the Michigan sideline said it all.

Just like the Ol' Ball Coach drew it up.

Non bitches?  Clowney sure as hell wasn't.  He just went out and fixed the problem.

Wow.  What a great hit.  There's a guy who just upped his draft stock.  I hope he knows what to do with forty million dollars.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

He isn't getting drafted for another year.  I don't know if he can really up it much more than it already is either.  Dude could have probably been drafted out of high school.

I will give credit to Smith for getting the fuck right up after getting stone-cold balled with the nation watching.  Time to feel woozy later, on the sideline.

He was even trying to get the ball and everything, although he couldn't do a whole lot from his back and Clowney had already palmed it anyway.

E: One thing I thought was interesting was with that new helmet rule thing, apparently if he had somehow held onto the ball until after his helmet had come off, the play would have been dead right then, and the fumble wouldn't have occurred (technically).

He was already a beast last season, and I honestly thought he outplayed Melvin Ingram last year;  I'd love to see him with a Baltimore Ratbird on the side of his helmet, but he's not getting past the 2nd pick when he goes.  Probably'll wind up in fucking Arizona or Jax or something.

True;  if he had the ball already tucked, and Clowney didn't arrive as early as he did, it would've been blown dead where he lost his helmet.  Luckily for Clowney, he was in his grill before the hand off was even complete.

Too bad #98 had to come in and fall on the ball.  Clowney had it in one hand and was one his way up to his feet.  Could you imagine a 35 yeard fumble return after that?  :lol:

EDIT:  Missed the point about the helmet by MBM.
