Mike Larsson goes with a rugby style punt, and it's a line drive that a CSU return man catches going the wrong direction. No return, CSU ball.

Liberty punts again. Mike Brown had Pat Kelly wide open on the third down play but tucked and ran instead.

Toscano throws in to triple coverage and this time we make the play for the turnover.

We keep trying to run a triple option out of the gun, and it's just not working.

3rd and 2.

We run a draw on 3rd and short, and don't get it.

Hey guys, that doesn't work anymore.

Mike to punt again.

CSU muffs the punt, but they're going to call fair catch interference.

Wow, after the replay, it's clear that there was no interference. Terrible call, LU would have had the ball inside the 10. Instead CSU has it and gets a big gain on first down.

LU will take over at about the 36 on a backwards bouncing punt for CSU.

RE: our offense. I think we're too confident in Mike's legs on 3rd down. Other than that, the calls tend to be decent.

And then we go with the option again and it doesn't work, again. Nevermind, I take that back.

SirChauncey with an 11 yard gain on 2nd down to get us to 3rd and 1. So help me, if we run a draw...

Goes up top to Chris Summers, incomplete, and a flag is down, likely against Chris for Offensive interference.

And it isn't! They call it on number 1 on CSU, not LU, and it's a first down.

LU runs a playaction to SirChauncey, and he gets open for a screen with a convoy and gets a big gain.

LU ball yards from the endzone as we end the first.

0-0 End of 1.

I saw this play earlier in the season (can't remember the game), and the ref explained it better in that game...if the player calls for a fair catch, he's given the right not to be interfered with, even if he muffs the ball, until it hits the ground. So the CSU player has to be allowed a chance to regain possession of the ball before it hits the ground before an LU guy can go after it (or hit him)...so since the ball never hit the ground before the LU guy grabbed it, it's a penalty. Kind of a fluky rule, but I've seen it called before.

I don't know what's up with the camera crew on the feed that Channelsurfing has, but the coverage is really bad. Sad thing is, I think it's a liberty crew. They missed half of the last play.

So then he could juggle it and gain yardage?

Seems like a dumb rule, but as long as it's the rule.
