S.C. player appears to make a pretty good hit.

The Linesman should not have pissed off Mr. Clowney with the preceding first down measurement.

And he grabbed the ball. Like a boss.

 

[Ferzerp]

Michigan was given an incorrect first down on the immediately preceeding play.

This made hulk smash.

FWIW, Vincent Smith (Jadeveon Clowney's victim on this play) was the player who planted his helmet in Mr. Clowney's jewels in the first half.

 

[bearxor]

Yeah, Rock Hill, SC REPRESENT!

Seriously though, we covered Clowney a lot while he was in high school. He's a pretty nice guy, usually really shy when the cameras were around. Glad to see he's still doing great!

ESPN Sports Center just referred to this hit as the opening of Jadeveon Clowney's 2013 Heisman campaign.

Well, at least we know the NFL replacement refs found work:

I'm a huge Michigan fan... And even I cheered at this play. Only because, as has been pointed out, it was sweet justice from the ref's botched measurement.

 

[OILFIELDTRASH]

Wow. He looked like he laid out a pee wee football player. Then one hands the loose ball off the ground. He looked like a semi coming through there. The running back probably thought he ran into a semi as well. That was awesome.

 

[TallBill]

Ouch

 

[darkxshade]

The Helmet was like "fuck that, I ain't getting hit" and bolted.

LOL.


Yeah, piss poor call by the ref.

 

[rcpratt]

Made my day.

I guess next year the Jets motto will be "Lousy for Clowney"

Why are you so obsessed with the Jets?

 

[Lash444]

It was a hit for the ages, and indeed sweet justice for the play before.

Props to Mr. Clowney. Dudes a beast.

 

[Krazy4Real]

Hell of a hit.

 

[techs]

Why are you so obsessed with the Jets?

Because I live close enough to hear Rex Ryans every word. He monopolized the sports pages with his blowhardness for way to long.

 

[Imported]

Best hit of the year. I loved the fact that he just grabbed the loose ball one-handed. Great awareness.

 

[ProchargeMe]

Clowney is easily one of the best players in the NCAA. I'm just glad he's playing for my state lol.

He's in my state but playing for the wrong team.:'(

If Dabo could have gotten Marcus Lattimore to believe in purple and orange tigers, Mr. Clowney would likely have followed.



Fortunately, they both appreciate the beauty of Garnet with Black.
