From the movie THE PROGRAM
Regent Chairman: This is not a football vocational school. It's an institute for higher learning.
Coach Winters: Yeah, but when was the last time 80,000 people showed up to watch a kid do a damn chemistry experiment? Why don't you stick the bow-tie up your ass?
That was a comical call. Seemed like the referees we're trying to outhink themselves and try to get the guy who started it instead of the guy who retaliated even though that retaliation was a pop to the helmet.
This is how I recall it going down:
1) #9 (punt returner) for UNI starts pushing his way into the pile of Bison punt coverage guys presumably to try to pick up the ball when/if a Bison guy touches but doesn't cover the ball.
2) Cox gives him a shove and #9 gives him a shove back.
3) Another Bison player gives him a shove and #9 gives him a shove back.
4) Hendricks grabs #9 and tries to move him away from the crowd of Bison players and #9 gives him a shove and then pops him with an open hand upper cut to the facemask.
I though for sure #9 was going to get a PF and that maybe they would call it offsetting. To just call a PF on the Bison and nothing else was nothing short of comical.
Dakota schools in MVFC conference play: 6-0
The rest of the MVFC in conference play: 4-10
22 from UNI was on his back more than Ron Jeremy. In the second half the oline was pancaking players 10 yards downfield. Excellent effort,
FCS is a dumpster fire this year. We won't be challenged in the second half any game till what, Montana in the semis, or JMU in the chipper? Can I hope for a one loss Villanova in the dome in the playoffs for something new?
That #9 fellow from UNI seems like a real likeable guy....
The 12 men on the UNI defense was a classic sign of a team losing their composure. First of all they called a TO because they only had 10on the field (if I’m recalling this correctly).
They come line up and the entire NW end zone is yelling for a minute about 12 on the field. Back judge must not have believed it because he sat there for awhile like “no f’ing way that’s possible” until finally he’s like “holy sh*t the fans are right” and let’s it fly.
The Farley loses his mind before he looks out there after 30 more seconds and realizes there’s 12 on the field and insert Homer Simpson back tracking into the bush.gif.
