Your QB could see that the receiver was covered. If anything, he should have thrown the ball away.
The receiver was covered, but that never stopped him from bringing down the ball before. The pass was tipped, great defensive play by Alabama. UGA did everything they were supposed to do, and an Alabama Defensive Lineman got his hand on the ball.
Instead of talking about whether the ball should have been spiked, how about Morgan not missing his field goal in the first half... how about not letting Alabama run Lacy right straight up the gut for 200 yards in the 3rd quarter, how about not having to punt with 2 minutes left and wasting time outs with a great defensive stop.
UGA fans aren't making excuses, but when you or anyone else wants to start talking about how this or that could have gone this way or that way, you can take that back to the corn field circle jerk. Maybe we should talk about your conference championship game.
You bucktoothed corn cobs.
