If making a "safe" signal is a 15-yard penalty then so should be a first down signal.

That announcer's an idiot. Never heard the penalty in the endzone and raved on about that, and now is acting like no one taunts ever and always gets penalized.

No, no they don't.
My only thought is that an out of position ref thought he did throat slash?  But taunting isn't something where an advantage is gained, so you better be 100% sure.  If not, unbelievably weak.

I have to say, even though he was " the enemy" I loved Brian Griese as a player. And I love him as a color analyst.  Smart, balanced, informed - interesting things to add.
Don't get why ESPN has marginalized him so much.  I really enjoy him

I like how Holly Sonders was a decent MSU golfer, got a boob job, changed her name, banged a PGA analyst, and now she has a career.

Clearly a fumble, but the Maryland player was also clearly down.  MSUs third fumble inside the 1 this year.

These announcers are embarrassingly bad.  Do you not understand the signal for touchback?

I can't imagine a scenario where Lovie sticks around. Probably by his choice.

Their lack of understanding in general (this year) has been obvious. Thanks, Big Jim.

Iowa/Purdue is interesting.

Looks like Iowa is suffering from The Wisconsin Effect.

I'm hoping that your theory rings true next week.
