I'll be honest, it looks like this is not a fake. #6 was limping around, #11 saw it and was yelling "get down, get down" or something like that and went to tackle him. #20 was walking off the field and heard whatever was being yelled and ducked because he had no idea what was going on.

He is walking pretty wonky.

That dude should not be dragging him down by the shoulders if he thinks he's injured.

LSU did that a lot - it did not help them.

Counterpoint, Texas did not do that - so maybe they should have at least tried.

I don't think the LSU guys were flopping, they were just dying from cramps in the heat. That nearly 8 minute drive at the beginning of the second half was brutal.

They did not have championship levels of hydration.

Taylor Hamm is kind of a pariah even among A&M fans in part because he apparently killed their chances with some big recruit by following the recruit around during a visit and then following him into a bathroom to try and corner him and ask him questions and it majorly creeped out the recruit and his dad

They're really bad in the middle of the defense, to the point that they were screwing around with a FB at DT for a bit, which went about as well as expected. Turns out that's bad when you play option teams and Wisconsin!

On offense yeah, for all the hands off talk in the offseason it still looks a lot more like Harbaugh's offense than what Penn State and Bama were doing when Gattis was there, and I don't think Patterson is actually as good as his recruiting ranking (also he might be hurt?). They have really good receivers and should be taking tons of deep shots but that hasn't happened much

Gattis was a receiver coach at Penn State, and while he was really good at that and a great recruiter, it isn't clear why he should have moved up to co-OC at Alabama and OC at Michigan. Just because he was around while Joe Moorhead was OC doesn't necessarily make him Joe Moorhead. I mean, we seem to be seeing a drop off at OC at Penn State. So in that sense, it was a big risk for Michigan to upgrade him to OC without a longer stint of being a coordinator elsewhere. The question is: would Harbaugh even allow a more experienced coordinator run the offense without meddling?

He had success every stop before this. The Bama offense was he co-OC for was one of the best in the country, someone hiring him to be full on OC is pretty natural. Working as a position coach for successful offenses is how people get OC jobs.

I don't really know that whatever is happening at Michigan is really his fault either, these seem like mostly the same problems that have existed there for awhile and as much as Harbaugh talked about turning over the keys there was never really any reason to believe him given his personality and his career to this point. They've had like five coordinators and it's been the same issue pretty much every year aside from the random half season where Jake Rudock went supernova

he's a senior, and Houston isn't very good this year, so he probably thinks he can increase his draft prospects by trying again in a year where Houston will hopefully be better

Jimbo was doing it borderline egregiously during the Clemson/A&M game.

I felt that way during the game, but that statement doesn't stand up to scrutiny. Here's a list that got compiled from the game:

TAMU injury stoppages vs Clemson posted:

Peevy - 12:15 2Q. Looked like his ankle was rolled on.
Peevy - 11:00 2Q. Could barely run. Hurt on a TD, so he wasn't stopping momentum.
Madabuike - 7:20 2Q. Looked legit. He went to the tent.
Blades - 5:45 2Q. Hurt his shoulder when he blitzed. Played resulted in intentional grounding and a 3rd & 26. He didn't return during the first half.
Johnson - 1:40 2Q. Couldn't see what happened.
Brown - 14:30 3Q. Second play of a three-and-out drive.
Wright - 8:50 4Q. Looked like a shoulder. He was on the ground for a while.

Hard to make a case with that data. Sorry about being a Jimbo apologists.
