College Football Week 9 or also known as 'As the Harbrough Turns'

Holy poo. Ngannou just floored Fury in the 3rd. Fury seems fine but he got knocked down.

So far he does not look like he's taken this seriously. Fury has not looked good.

No OC wants to run an offense that consists of "alright guys, broken play on 3 let's go!"

Well the worry is he's missing the read the first time round and has to improvise - which is obviously much harder to do against NFL athletes.

He's done this his last few fights - wants a brawl rather than using his superior boxing skills to out box his opponents. 

Suspect he'll buck his ideas up now and change his tactics.

He does. In the games I've watched he's had guys open  quite a bit while he's looking for something else.

He's brawling even more. I think he came into this wanting to show he could beat Ngannou at his own game. He probably will end up doing it but damn... that's a risky game to play 

[LinvilleGorge]

Fury is starting to put it on Ngannou pretty good now. Ngannou is definitely slowing down. Ngannou has a chin though. He hasn't seemed seriously bothered by anything landed yet.

The hits add up even if it’s not showing yet. He’s got to block better.

Nah, he's actually boxing now and has taken over the fight.

This is pretty embarrassing for Fury. This is way closer than it every should've been. Ciryl Gane made Ngannou look like a complete amateur on the feet in MMA.

USC is cooked. They gave up a 40 burger already 

[LinvilleGorge]

Fury did not take the seriously. He looks straight gassed.

If I'm in his corner I'm seriously worried about these scorecards right now. Only two rounds left and this has been razor close and Ngannou has a knockdown in his back pocket.

This is shaping up like an all-time embarrassing upset in combat sports. The legendary boxers littering the crowd look WORRIED. They've already seen their sport slip badly in recent years. This would be a terrible black eye for the sport.

By a future ACC school.

 

California/Stanford in the ACC is going to be so weird. 

[LinvilleGorge]

Fury wins a razor thin split decision. What an embarrassing evening for Tyson Fury and boxing.

Yeah and they have time to get to 50 if they push for it. Caleb’s keeping it close enough they can’t let off the pedal.
