Well that's crazy.

 

[gotime909]

I feel horrible for western. The biggest robbery ever in sports

 

[rumseyhouse77]

The announcers called Buchannan's number and he made the play.

 

[rumseyhouse77]

Lmao off. It worked. It still is a shit show .

Yep. WMU played like Michigan was expected to play.

 

[rumseyhouse77]

Great catch in the endzone.

ESPN gamday said 12 - 7 FINAL. ???? What happened?

 

[biggunsbob]

Storming the field for western Michigan.
That is a joke

 

[rumseyhouse77]

I suspect the refs will say the ball crossed the plane of the back of the endzone with one second left, so that is why they put one second on the clock.

 

[biggunsbob]

They put 1 second back on clock.
After I said underwood cant even throw the hailmary right .
He throws a perfect one to JJ Buchanan.

 

[Spartanmack]

storming the field after beating a MAC team is almost as pathetic as losing to a MAC team.

Gonna be hard to beat adding that second to the clock as the worst call of the season, decade, century maybe of all time.

 

[rumseyhouse77]

Only 106 yards rushing. They are not going to win many games with that kind of rushing game.

 

[rumseyhouse77]

They put 1 second back on clock.

He throws a perfect one to JJ Buchanan.

He had a practice shot.

 

[rumseyhouse77]

Well, WMU is a good team. Appy State was a good team too. Well coached and the players execute the game plan well. Can't sleep on these teams.

 

[biggunsbob]

Did the ball hit the Crossbar ? if it did clock stops there.
I think that’s the rule..Only way I see there to be one second left.
All my replays are on small screens. Plus I wear readers.

My 2nd Grandkid was born Friday September 4th and 6:28 am.

Luna Elizabeth Burton born 12/6/24

I have had to watch Luna a bit, and she is a blast to play with.
Such a fun little girl.

Whether this is what really occurred or not is a different question to address, but this is the statement and they’re sticking into it.

And I invoke the Serenity Prayer in this situation.

Here is Doug Karsh and Jon Jansen’s radio call. Both the first and 2nd one and the replay with them talking about it. Only interview i have listened to is Marsh and he said exactly what needed to be said that they played like crap basically.

I didn't realize the pass was something like 60 yards in the air!
