VINCE YOUNG On hi def?


Just had to mention hi def to legitimize a football post here. I follow the NFL so i have a question: Is this what I've been missing by not watching college football or was this the greatest single effort by a quarterback in the history of the game? Or both? Help me out here, guys. I've never seen anything like this kid before.

And yeah, now I really do want to get a hi def tv for the games.

What a quarterback!

It was a great match up and Vince was fun to watch. If his receivers had better hands, he might not have had to run as much -- he's a pretty good passer so that should earn his way into the NFL even if running won't work in the big leagues.

By the way, didn't you love how the announcers kept showing the missed call (knee down) when Texas got a touchdown but never again mentioned the flubbed call on the interception when the ground caused the ball to pop out on the Texas defender? Unlike the Iowa game (boy, did they get screwed), at least these bad calls cancelled out!

Great game! Great picture quality!
I too am from Texas......... Make that Austin Baby! The town is on it's ear, the tower is orange and, we are number one. Here is to all the doubters who said we couldn't hang. Sorry to gloat but being a UT fan hearing the non-stop USC is going to kill UT hype I feel we have earned the right (for a while at least).

I have been watching VY for long time now and let me tell you, HE IS THE REAL DEAL. He has succeded at avery level so far.... There is no doubt he will be great in the NFL when he decides to go. You really have to see him play live to understand what I mean but, I'm glad the rest of the country got to see him on TV at least.

The games HD broadcast was really great. I only wish there was more programming available.
Ozfly Its about time someone mentioned My Hawkeyes getting royally screwed with at least 5 rediculous calls. Except for the announcers during the game, no one has said anything. I wonder if this is a fear of retaliation by the NCAA. Anyway, Mr. Young showed how stupid and political the Heisman vote went. He beat 2 Heisman winners and White who played the best for USC singlhandedly. Young only got 5 votes for the Heisman. At least Reggie Bush has class. My thought about the NFL is maybe he ought to stay in college one more year to hone his passing skills. It helped him this year. Dan
Well I think we saw a good game and yes I am a sore looser.--Jeez, you don't throw away 3 points in the first quarter. Even when SC was ahead early they didn't look good. It seems everytime (one exception) our Reggie headed straight out of bounds whenever they gave him the ball.---(To many accolades / to soon??) Then;-- how can you let Vinny run right so many times??????
There are many Heisman winners that had much trouble in the pros. In the end; I've never seen a QB like Vinny. And,yup, it was great in HiDef.
What I can't get over about Young is how smoothly and easily he seems to run, yet no one can catch him or bring him down when they do hit him. Avguygeorge is saying the same thing I said in last year's Rose Bowl, but the fact is Young is faster and bigger than he seems, he is very hard to stop even when you know what he's doing. In the pros I don't think he'll be able to do that as easily (he won't be bigger than the LBs coming after him, for one thing), but his passing skills have improved markedly over last year's Rose Bowl to the point that I think he should do well in the pros based on his leadership skills and his passing ability, with the running being an added bonus.

By the way, as good as this year's Rose Bowl was, I thought last year's was even better, and my team lost too (can't believe that field goal just got over the bar!).
