    I wonder if that was even his man to cover.

    Awesome night for that Tiger.

    In his postgame interview he said that it was not his man. He said he saw the TE running free with the ball in the air and just tried to adjust. Glad he did...

    I agree. Reid had his biggest game ever. And that was before the INT. I think that play should have been play of the game.

    No Doubt! He is the savior of this game. You can tell he came out ready for this game from the first defensive play. Just a little concern that we won't be able to keep him until his senior year if he continues to perform at this level, just like PP7 and MC17.

    We will be fine regardless, we are now at a football level to where we have depth. Imagine what this game has done to recruiting for the past 2 weeks and the victory tonight, we have a coach with class and luck.
    Who wouldn't want to come play DB or Safety for the Tigers?

    On the interception by Reid, Mingo rushed Maze and made him throw it off his back foot and the ball floated on him.

    Eric Reid is like former USC safety Taylor Mays, if Taylor Mays could actually play football.
