Sellers looking like Cam on that QB power. Ironically his OC this year? Mike Shula.

I expect a good bit of designed runs for Sellers this year compared to last.

That lucky SOB has fallen backasswards into another QB cheat code. Not saying Sellers is Cam but in terms of raw physical talent he's certainly elite.

Shula is a great hire if you are the Gamecocks.   College is college.   Shula will use him like a college team should

Cocks have no running game

That's a name recognition hire. He should be singing the praises of his pops at all times.

The whole "surviving the ground" thing need to just go away. If you catch the ball and possess it inbounds it shouldn't matter if you lose control of it going to the ground out of bounds.

Right. If you catch the ball control it and get two (!) feet down - play over and touchdown. What happens after is irrelevant.

It shouldn’t have constituted an overturn of the call on the field.

Which is strange because roosters typically run better than they fly

I get that the whole catch/no catch thing is always going to involve some gray area stuff but action occurring out of bounds just shouldn't matter. The receiver caught the ball, possessed it in the end zone then the DB knocked it lose as he's going to the ground after he's already out of bounds. That action shouldn't impact anything. It's happening out of bounds.

Yeah, identical call to last night.  Which is the rule.   They shouldn’t be TDs given the rule is the rule. 

Announcers in both games doing all they can to get the fans mad though…as both games the announcers seem to basically disregard and play dumb about the catch rules.

What about a catch in the middle of the field? You do you want them to maintain control as they fall? 

Thats the catch? Having different rules for the endzone vs everywhere else. 
 

*I’m not arguing one way vs the other.  But a catch has to be universal rules IMO regardless of location of play
