buzzcut Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 South Carolina and Clemson didn't get to see last night's Pacer/Piston brawl. Fights not only before the game, but during it!!!I hope the NCAA blocks both of them from participating in a bowl. :mad: The CCSLC's resident Geelong Cats fan.

NJTank Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Mayeb they saw it and wanted to join in the fun themselves. This is getting out of hand. The NCAA fights in football have been really bad leatly I say in College a fight automatic suspension for your next game, or longer. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesCraven Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Didn't we learn something from the brawl in Detroit? I think Lou Holtz and Tommy Bowden should be held accountable for this. Insteand of banning them from bowls (hey, they're eligible), the players involved will be suspended for their bowl games.

Insteand of banning them from bowls (hey, they're eligible), the players involved will be suspended for their bowl games. If it appeared that everyone on both sidelines got involved, the NCAA should(nay, MUST) declare both teams ineligible for the bowl season.(And if you believe I'm calling for this, just so the MAC can get more teams into bowl matchups, you're wrong.)

benJAMMIN039 Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Ironically, I attended a speech Lou Holtz made in Mexico a few years back, and he talked about how brawls and big fights like this ruin the game of college football and that he definately likes motivation, but this is definately not the right type. You could see Lou really trying to hold his players back. I've never seen him so fired up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paynomind Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 I like em.More fights would be more interesting.I like fired up players, and player who wont take crap off of the other team, particularly in a rivalry game. I hope GT and UGA get in a fight.Especially in games where late hits, etc aren't called, like was going on in the Clem-USC game.

It's apples and elephants. How is fighting in sports human nature? And how is a unbridled expression of happiness not? Oh wait, I see the difference. One was done by colllege kids the other...no, thats not it. Ok found it. One was while little kids might have been watching and might have made them think that was ok while...no, not it either. Ok here it is. One was about emotions boiling over to the point where they couldn't control it anymore whereas the other one...crap! I don't see a difference at all. If you think one swear word on live tv is bad, I don't see how you can condone a benchclearing brawl in college football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
