24 weeks 4 days ago Yeah, but I think it's

Yeah, but I think it's pointless for Dantonio to complain about a flop when he probably coaches his own punter to do the same in the same situation.  I'd think any good punter in the country would've done the same thing - heads up play to sell it to the refs.

I'm shocked that MSU fans are crying about the penalty, claiming that it was a bad call or that the MSU player was blocked into the kicker.

1. Don't call a punt block with the kind of field position you can get with plenty of time on the clock and an offense that had been moving the ball really well. It was almost guaranteed to at least go into OT.
2. The blocker barely touched the guy rushing and certainly didn't block him into the kicker. The angle was overly aggressive and he put himself in a bad position.
3. Flop or not (and it was a bit of a flop) - that penalty will get called 99% of the time in at any point of any game. I've seen the penalty called on much less contact than that before, so even if he "grazed a hamsting" he still ran into the kicker. And punters/kickers are coached to go down like that if there's contact - any smart player on any team would've done the exact same thing.

The penalty wasn't even remotely close to "borderline" as some Sparties are saying. Quit making excuses and own up to your team's mistakes.

The punter was legitimately hit, and that will get called all the time.
24 weeks 4 days ago Disagree.  What happened in

Disagree.  What happened in this game will get called 100% of the time, and a Sparty fan I was watching it with agreed.  Bad way to end the game for them, but schadenfreude for us!

Iowa State has some talent, but I don't think it matches Michigan.  The score is showing that now, but you could tell even earlier in the game - we just needed our shots to drop.

It was even crazier once we got down there.  It took us a long time because it was so crowded that people had to squeeze together to let more people down on the field.
