Yea I have been told that too. For me that is still 45 mins away and I used to have cable but now I may join you over there. There are actually a lot of us down here on the panhandle surprisingly and in the Fort Walton area as well!

My entire college career, I kept hoping it would be allowed back. Alas, that day never came...

A lot of conflating cut blocking and chop blocking in those links.

Basically cut blocking is legal but it's unpopular with defenders. Chop blocking happens much more frequently in GT's offense because the way they try to have the C or OG run past the DT toward the LB's, while an OT or the other OG does a cut block into the side of the DT's leg. Paul Johnson coaches his OL to execute that block regardless of whether the DT is engaging the man across from him, resulting in many more chop blocks than any other team.
What they are doing is dirty on several levels, not just the crap on the line but the clipping they try to get away with by sending their WR's and A-Backs outside-in to cut block safeties or LB's from the side/behind while they're flowing to the ball carrier.

It's an offense built around pushing the edge of legal blocking techniques and it frequently succeeds only because they cross the line into illegal blocking and get away with it because the play is hard to discerne from the legal, but borderline plays before and after.

The same architect designed Wakes' stadium. There's a reason it's called Little Lane.

You may notice ho quickly our redzone performance deteriorated after that cheer was banned.

That's interesting that they are so West-Coast focused. I remember when they lost to USC at a night game that Weaver and Beamer commented on how that travel may have cost them and would cost them the next week too. Basically, you're losing 2 days of prep, one for each week.
