Hell yeah! Get that outlaw scumbag out of football.

University of Iowa fifth-year linebacker Jayden Montgomery has been named to the 2026 Jason Witten Collegiate Man of the Year Watch List, it was announced Thursday.

Nominated by their schools, the members of the watch list have all demonstrated a record of leadership by exhibiting exceptional courage, integrity and sportsmanship both on and off the field.

I forgot the refs let the 1st quarter clock expire with no penalty despite the play clock being a second ahead.
Coming right after the Michigan timing controversy… I thought the clocks were now supposed to be synced and accurate.

I've seen this happen in other games. I think it goes back to how the refs enforce it. They look for the play clock to be 0 then back to the ball to see if it's been hiked before stopping the play. That essentially adds an additional second and lets the game clock expire. One of the dumber enforcements of rules in all of sports.

They really did suck
The replies in that thread are fucking astounding....

I still haven't decided if I'm more surprised by the horrible officiating, or the fact that in many of the cases, that the players were clearly coached to do this; which, in a weird way is impressive a la Tom Izzo basketball

There were just so many seemingly arbitrary and random fuck ups. Like with all the player safety focus, how do you ignore all the personal fouls?

Did they fail to reset the clock after that reversed-call incompletion late in the 3rd? I swear there was like :55 on the clock and they stopped it at :19, ISU punts and we get it at :10. Guess in the end it hurt them tho
Yes, I was yelling about this, and Kirk should have taken his headset off and listened to me.
