Kyle Kennard

[wesgt123]

Well well well. I just saw who cost South Carolina the game vs LSU pretty much with an unnecessary high hit on a QB after throwing a pick-6. None other than Kyle Kennard.

I always said he was a decent edge rusher but he has a horrible habit of reaching high, getting facemask penalties called on him on crucial plays of the game. Well. He showed out yet again.


New school. Same issues.

We could use him this year foreal though. Go Jackets

I watched some of that game and he was really good rushing the passer. sure would like to have someone like him.

We have him on the team, been saving him for L'ville. Not sure it is but trust me on this, we will find out who Saturday.
Go Jackets!

He definitely was playin well, but unfortunately impacted it negatively several times.

 

[WreckinGT]

He would pretty easily be the best player on our defense right now. Whatever random bad habits he has, he is a game changer.

 

[UgaBlows]

I’d love to have him back

Would have been nice to use him for Syracuse

Bring him back.

Bring him back.

This is now our life, turnstile where players come and go each year...grass is always greener so they will be in constant motion. The occasional player will love a program and stay but in general it is going to be fluid

I think Kelly Quinlan covered it really well in his Sunday youtube video. Kennard is good at making splash plays, both good and bad. From what I saw, SC fans are not really blaming him too much because of the good plays that he has made for them.

He also had a costly cowboy collar tackle on a would be sack early in the game.

He's ballin' out though. We sure could use him on our DL.

He wasn't ready for Syracuse. He needed a couple more weeks of intensive training to come out.

 

[MACHETE]

5 sacks and 2 FF?!

FTFY.

I think that call against Kennard was BS, the qb was running towards the intercepter and Kyle just shoved him in the chest

I did not understand the call. The hit/block on the QB was after the interception/change of possession; several seconds after the pass was thrown. Why doesn't USC get to keep the ball? If they want to call a blindside block, fine; but don't call it roughing the passer...because the passer became a defender after the change of possession and is now trying to make a tackle. Is there a rules expert that can clarify?

 

[LargeFO]

It didn't even look blindside to me. And the QB is a defender after a pick. Just seemed like a further softening of football call imo

Is that what it was? Or did the SEC need the higher profile team to win?

Hey, we've seen SEC refs first hand. I now believe all conspiracy theories related to that league fixing games.

Ya'll remember when Joe Anoai (Roman Reigns) destroyed Brandon Cox?

They would've given Joe a 4 game suspension these days.

SC kept the ball, the pick stood. Penalty was enforced and SC didn't get the pick 6 and ended up not scoring on the drive.
