Video: Tommy Tuberville after USF whipping

[Mama_Bull]

I seem to remember Tubberville's post-game comments once before when USF took it to Auburn.  If I recall correctly, that loss led to the end of his career at Auburn that year.

I had noticed that as well.  If it is because they had Bench throw the ball for the last TD, he needs to realize the situation - a senior backup in his last home game having a chance to throw a TD.  I don't think it was Taggart piling on - rather giving Bench a shot and doing what he did, getting a TD throw.

Boom.

 

Exactly. Bench has been a great teammate and deserved to be rewarded for his contributions the last few years. The Cincinnati starters not being able to stop our second team offense is on them not us. 

And boom.  Good posts, y'all.  If Flowers was still in there throwing TD passes, that's when he'd have a right to be a bit miffed.

The announcers for CBS (who I like) thought it was piling on to go for it on 4th down.  

I totally disagree.   Cinci had their starters in and were trying to come back and they are a team that is capable of that.   I found myself squirming a little at the end of the third. 

We had our 2nd team in and ran it every play down the field and they were unable to stop us.  That last pass play was reward for their efforts - especially Bench.

It is not like we were slinging passes and trying to run up the score.   

Its not our responsibility to take the foot of the pedal. We did put in most of our 2nd string and they were not able to stop that either.  What would the announcers like us do , Take 3 knees than punt each possession?    Cincy kept fighting as we would expect them to do, Had they threw in the towel and gone to a vanilla offense(3 runs and punt) I suspect Coach T would had done the same.(not like we were running trick plays or piling it on) We only scored 14 points in the 2nd half (after scoring 51 in the first)(so they  should feel lucky we called the dawgs off)  Also When you don't play all out you risk getting injured as well.   Tired of hearing losing teams complain about being blown out. If you don't like being blown out than don't let it happen to you.

I think he got the axe the following year ..... but that loss was probably still stinging.

Can't stand that little hobbit

remember bobby bowden telling a story about playing penn st and  paterno running up the score.  bowden told paterno "you shouldn't have ran up the score on us like that."  joepa replied "it's not my job to stop running up the score, that's your job."

You are probably right, I'm not sure, but our win over them in overtime had to contribute to his firing.

Go bulls.... 

 

I actually thought Cincy played pretty well in the second half. Of course coming back from down 48 points is just not realistic, but Cincy kept fighting, and our backups kept fighting just as hard. 

Going conservative when having the lead will result in losses. Do what works and keep doing it until it doesn't work anymore.

well actually some of their scores in the second half were because of our second stringers' mistakes.. like that high snap in our territory that Cincy then recovered to score a TD
