3rd and 31 for Johnny Football

In the AtM Bama game. Manziel didn't pull a Tyrod. Guess he's not all that.

...cause we all know. The Hokie Pokie is what it's all about!

We put the K in Kwality

But he did just make a 45 yard throw for a 12 yard gain...

Logan 3:16

I was gonna say that that play was still ridiculous

Yeah, ran backward for 30 yards then got lucky. The receiver made that play. Johnny just set it up. Kinda like Eli Manning in the Super Bowl a few years ago.

Horrible throw that was evened up when he got picked in the end zone. I wish NCAA 14 had that kind of justice when my opponent just starts throwing deep heaves and gets away with it over and over.

Manziel is so exciting to watch, I don't care about the off-field issues!

He's a great player but he acts like an ass on the field. Taunting and stuff? I don't like him. He's a great football player but is a poisonous personality. I'm going for Bama.

Its still not as good as Tyrod vs FSU 2007!

CBS comentators dont understand the new rules..you can't hit above the shoulder pads at a player..period.

"After review, there was no foul but there's still a 15 yard penalty." I swear...

Not sure if you wanted him ejected orrrr if you didn'twant the 15 yarder... Because that wasn't targeting.

I just hate Alabama and the CBS commentators..lol roll tears.

Haha no I didn't want him ejected. I think it's ridiculous you can withdraw a foul but still penalize the team 15 yards

Odd rule..should All penalty s be reviewed?

Touchdown Tech - Bill Roth

It's just because of the potential for ejection that all " targeting" plays are reviewed.

Horrible quality, but such a play!

I loved Yeldon's doing Johnny's thing with a finished after. Why can't he do that but Manziel can do his version...

in Fuller we trust

The throat slash is a no-no. Can't do that.

I do understand that, but why is Manziel's little douche-y motion get a pass? I am in no way shape or form the type of person to rub stuff in people's noses, but why is it okay for him?

95 yard pass isn't too bad on 3rd down either

Missed it. Had to step away to help make dinner.

In case you forget how to convert a 3rd and 31:

Every time I see something from 2007, I hate Matty Ice all the more so.

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

can't help but admire the fight in this Aggie offense. 15s left, they bring the game within a touchdown once more

I was watching the game today and thinking about how Tyrod was a better player than Manziel. He had the exact same ability to extend plays, but had a much better arm (at least by his senior year).

Rip his freaking head off!

Manziel has the Vick factor though for making plays with out that level of talent.

I severely dislike Manziel. But he is good. Alabama appeared to have dominated much of this game. But they still had an onside kick opportunity at the end to try to win. I only saw a short clip of his postgame interview but he wasn't all bad in it.

Did anyone else hear Tracy Wolfson during the game? Verne asked her what her one on one interview with Manziel was like and she said he said his philosophy was, "Live hard, play hard," and then Tracy said he said something else to her that she was sure he'd prefer she not say. Sounds like he propositioned her to my ear.

Yeah that's what it sounded like to me too. Lindquist had no idea how to react when she said that.
