Star Telegram seems to have an unfavorable view of Texas A&M ever since leaving for the SEC, and I think it shows in Kristi Reiken's write up. The pass was ill-advised? Wasn't it a "free play" given the obvious yet uncalled off-side foul?

Correction - Reiken is an Associated Press sports writer - my bad.

Why throw the ball if you never saw the flag?!? Poor decision by our coaching staff to "teach" them to throw it up

ZOMG true Freshman might have made a mistake.

The tragedy here this year is the utter failure of Kenny Hill. The offense becomes a quagmire and the defense gets hung out to dry when the offense struggles.

I don't know if the pass was ill-advised or not. I do know that we had just as good a chance to catch it as LSU did.

Like you realistically have time to look for a flag

****ing idiots. Kyle DID NOT make a mistake. Anyone who thinks he did should never post on any board even remotely related to football.

You think the duck he threw was a good pass? I guess I should never post on any board remotely related to football.

Makes no damned difference what type of pass he threw. And, no, you shouldn't.

throwing a duck, jump ball with the game on the line doesn't count as a mistake?

please stop posting

It was a free play.

The officials were clowns, as is everyone blaming Kyle.

Bunny, you are the worst poster on this board. The d-lineman was clearly offsides and Kyle did was every quarterback is taught to do when that happens. Take a shot at a big play. He did nothing wrong!

The nuance here is that Kyle made the right decision, but he just didn't make a good throw.

And really, the WR should have caught the damn ball.

A free play that hit the reciever in the hands is a good throw and play

The DT clearly jumped offsides right in front of KA. It should have been a free play. The refs made the mistake, not KA.

Anyone that doesn't know this knows nothing about football.

I was most pissed off about Sumlin not going ballistic on the officials. Hell there are 90 seconds left in the game. Either make them throw a late flag or kick you out of the stadium. Without that call the game is over anyway so cause a damn scene every once in a while!

Maybe that's just the baseball fan in me coming out.

No, it's not a mistake. It was a free play because the guy jumped offsides. Maybe you missed that. FYI, when a guy jumps offsides, it's a smart play to throw it downfield to possibly get a big play because worst-case scenario is a five-yard penalty in favor of the offense. Hope that helps.

It was a duck, so that part wasn't great. That's the beauty of a free play, though--the worst possible outcome is five free yards. No sane person can blame Allen for making that throw.

This.

QBs are coached on every level to do exactly what Kyle did. Again, if you want to nit pick on Kyle, he didn't throw a great ball, but his decision was the right one.
