I'm not sure if this was posted anywhere else, but it's an interesting topic from some Delaware fans who made the trip.

Early in the game we got hit with a cut block penalty. Looking at the game 7:30 in our G is within five yards of the line of scrimmage and contacts between 10-2. LB turns his body to take the chop block on his hip. Is there something that i'm not seeing because that looks like a good block to me????

Typical. If a defender see a cut block coming all they need to do is twist their hips and, BAM... 15 yard penalty.

Isn't a chop block when you block low on a defender who is already engaged? I don't think the play you're describing is a chop block.

Edit. I guess I'm too focused on semantics....I think you're point is valid......just commenting on the term. Come to think of it, I think the broadcast did the same thing.

I guess looking back the ref says "illegal block below the waist" Same question though. Don't get the call at all. 15 Yard penalties like that kill drives. So they better be legit. Maybe I'm missing something though?

A heads up for those planning to travel to Delaware next year. There are several hotels across the main street (College Ave) from their stadium. I was able to book my room today. Rates weren't bad.

$171 for the Homewood suites across the street from the stadium. For the Northeast, that's not bad.

At the airport in Houston I received an invite to a tailgate. He saw my Bizon cap and wanted to talk football. He wondered if we built this program with Bakken wealth?

I have read that as a "fact" on a couple of other fan sites.
