Nigel Bradham hit fsu miami laron byrd 2011 ejected from game

[00ndb]

haha. was at the game. i remember watching a recorded version when i got home and some fan was sitting near a microphone shouting "YOU FUCKING SUCK!"

[305bizem]

miami is not different from fsu... they're both are schools trying to get back up in the polls. but this was a legal hit #go_canes

[superstarEric17]

This was one of the worst calls in NCAA history that was a clean hit, he never left his feet and his shoulder pads went straight into the chest.

[FuzzyManGaming]

5 national championships vs 2 national championships.. DO THE MATH!!! FSU won a game the series heavily favors miami. More players in the pros than FSU in the past 10 years then FSU ever had. You may have won a battle but we have won the war!! ITS ALL ABOU THE []_[]!!!

[basoon64]

@FuzzyManGaming not for long btw enjoy your postseason....oh wait LOL

[FuzzyManGaming]

@basoon64 5 vs 2 last time seminoles won one??? 1995! Canes 2001! FSU HAS ITS MOMENTS!! MIAMI STILL KICKS ASS!!! ALL ABOUT HE []_[]!!!

[basoon64]

@FuzzyManGaming nooooo fsu was 99-2000 but history doesnt matter you guys lose lamar miller and jacory harris theyre screwed for a while soon enough fsu will lead this series

[basoon64]

@FuzzyManGaming yeah yeah living in the past blah blah blah 23-19 (37-13)

[FuzzyManGaming]

@basoon64 Im glad jacory is gone, FSU however will be even more glad when ej leaves. You guys are one of the top dissapointments of the season. Top 10 team now not in the top 25. At least when miami is expected to do well. They dont absoulutely bomb it and lose to bad teams

[basoon64]

@FuzzyManGaming right were so dissapointed with ej and the fact he is 13-3 as a starter fsu is going to dominate the acc the next few years

[FuzzyManGaming]

@basoon64 U mad bro? FSU dont live up to hype?

[basoon64]

@FuzzyManGaming well injuries and refs killed our season just as you saw in this game i have no idea why youre still talking when we beat you

[fsnoles2005]

@FuzzyManGaming who said the war was over?

[jbills822]

KTFO!

Legal hit though. Football is ridiculous these days, I swear; there's probably a penalty somewhere for farting on the field.

Loved how ABC/ESPN didn't catch the guy/fan cursing lol!!

[brookins9621]

Kudos to Dawkins for making the quick hands INT. Who says big men can't catch?

[wackawacka060606]

UPDATE: On Jeff Cameron show ACC associate commissioner Micheal Kelly admitted to balking on the ACC's previous statement and admitted that the hit was legal

9 in-game reviews is unacceptable

This falls on Doug Rhoads on the micro level and the NCAA on a macro level

This is the same reason MLB will eventually ban tobacco, NBA players are given lengthy suspensions for minor punches, and the NFL might as well be using flags

PARENTS DONT WANT KIDS TO SEE "BAD INFLUENCES" and FAMILIES=$

[bittyrock]

Looked Clean...Shoulder to Shoulder Hit. NCAA like the NFL wants High Scoring Games. Defensive Players have it Bad in Today's Football!

[jcmojo91]

I have no respect for Miami they play dirty football all the time and yall didnt invent swagger yall invented THUGS

[aaron8793]

@jcmojo91 I agree completely! They play dirty and are abunch of thugs!

[Ginga]

@aaron8793

You're no better than the lazy media. It's been over 20 years and people still can't think of a better label for Miami players than "thugs" when there are numerous programs around the country with players getting into more trouble. It's really sad...

[kreyzon]

@jcmojo91 how does miami play any more dirty football than FSU. most of both teams players come from the same areas. as far as this hit goes, i'm a canes fan and yes this was a legal hit, i was at the game. nothing like the first half taking 2 hrs due to constant reviews. both canes and fsu fans were talking shit about the refs because we could all agree they were a terrible crew.

[TheCanesGang]

@jcmojo91 Can you please tell me the last time a Hurricane players was arrestd

[poeticwaxer]

@jcmojo91 Let me school you, we invented SWAGGER, everyone copied us, and we only acted the ass when other teams talked shit. As far as thugs, take a look at Oklahoma in the mid 80's, Fla arrest record under Meyer, and if your an FSU fan..don't even let me go there.To be so subject towards us is more biased bullshit being slung! How about the corporate THUGS at SMU, oh I get the players were black (UM)..smdh! How about all the racist schools before (SEC Big12)..oohh how we forget!

[xblgator2009]

That was a clean it. and if you look it was picked off too. The game was a lot further than the score.

[C0ct0pusPrime]

AND it ended up being intercepted...double whammy thanks to refs with their heads up their asses.

[Wossfootball44]

The only reason they ejected him was because it was a bang bang play. The refs make their judgement based on what they see at that moment. I don't agree it shouldn't have been an ejection, and there wont be anymore discipline after. I for one love hits like that...even though I'm a Canes fan. I miss real football.

[CaneTenacity]

Bad call. Legit clean hard-ass hit. That's how you want your players to hit. Jacory needs to be hit like that for leading Laron into a kill-zone situation - way to string him out there Jacory

Coach Golden even said it was good hard hit and he hopes that Bradham doesn't receive any kind of punishment from the ACC and I completely agree. That would be bullshit if the ACC were to suspend him

Go beat the everliving shit out of the Crocs and lay a couple of these on them for the rest of the nation

[Wossfootball44]

[beachbody03]

As many bonehead plays as Bradham makes, that one legit. In addition I didn't even know that we got an interception on that play (plus the one they called back at the beginning of the game). Miami was fortunate for this game being close.

[encycl07pedia]

IDK why people say it was a great hit. He completely missed the referee.

[C0ct0pusPrime]

@encycl07pedia LMFAO!

[Nottotv]

Please, if that was an illegal hit, then football needs to be discontinued immediately.

[wmgrad06]

Moles suck donkey shit yes yes I know I speak the truth

[dixon5202]

What happened to football? If this type of panziness keeps up then we're going to be back to two hand touch soon.

[canes1003]

Disagree with the ejection. good hit.

statistically miami dominated you. those "it sucks to be U" t shirts?

5 national titles, ranked 32nd academically. compared to what? A state school with the highest std rate in the Us?

Bad calls went both ways. Obvious pass interference on the final drive before the hit, no call. having a review overturned 3 times. a punt in the endzone marked at the one. Stop roughing the passer if you dont want the flag. Maybe under our probation you can catch up.

[FLAST4LIFE]

@canes1003 the "sucks to be U" shirts refer to the scandals that were brought up earlier this year dumb ass

[canes1003]

@FLAST4LIFE

exactly you faggot anyone with half a brain knows that. That point was conceded. Compare the two fucking schools. even with a future of 1-3 years on probation. Still a better history, still a better school. It will still be great to be a Miami Hurricane. No one here thinks it sucks to be us, rather it sucks to be a bunch of sorry ass Nole, Vtech fans that have nothing better than to pick on a school that does more with FAR less.

[aaron8793]

@canes1003 Miami didn't even have a chance. If it weren't for the zebras the score woulda been 38-7 easily.

[bigfrotes9912]

@canes1003 You've got to be joking. If the refs weren't incompetent we would've won by more. Fuck off.

[creamcheeseandonions]

@canes1003 You're a fucking moron.

And the highest STD rate of any college in the US award goes to UF. Seriously.

[Nottotv]

@canes1003 WTF I HATE when people use school rankings and childish stats to compare to a fuckin football game.. get over it, MIAMI sucks now and they will be for the fore coming years per NCAA violations. what stats do you use to find the std rates in colleges..? CHILDISH idiots piss me off on the interent, its just annoying.

[bantms]

@canes1003 Where did you even get that std statistic? I guarantee it's wrong not to mention I'm sure you made it up in your head. Std statistics can never be right cause most people that have them don't even know.

"Statistically being dominated" means our defense played lockdown.

No catching up to do. Today makes our 3rd win out of the past 4 years. Good luck next year giving us our 4th.

Your ejection judgment was great, leave the rest out next time. Makes you look like the sore loser you are.

[canes1003]

@bantms

Duval County was rated highest in Florida for gonorrhea, second for chlamydia, sixth for AIDS and third in the nation for HIV.

Does Duval even have 300,000 thousand people?

Trojan Condoms has rankings on the sexual safety stats and Fsu ranked 102 in the nation with a 14% of infection on campus. 3 % higher than San diego state which is has the second highest.

[Jagnole101]

@canes1003 41-13 game without the refs. Another freakin' 28-point swing...if you guys don't get help!

[DirtyTowel19]

@canes1003 I don't believe you saw the 45-17 lashing we put on you guys last year. The Refs fucked us on the last two drives and we STILL came out with a victory after playing a piss poor game offensively

[jcmojo91]

@canes1003 no excuses FSU won and overcame the shitty calls and it will always "suck to be U"

[powersss21]

@canes1003 Miami was outplayed. Got some bullshit calls to go their way near the end to make it even close. Congratulations, ranked 32nd academically, clearly lower than that in football. Highest std rate? You must have caught something from the hooker when you went to watch your little canes get stomped. But hey, you guys keep paying your recruits to get them committed. We'll let our playing and the fans at Doak get our recruits.

[Bayslax1]

@canes1003 sucks to be U

[FSUscar]

@canes1003 UMADBRO, just because Miami fucking sucks and couldn't win with the refs cheating, and by the way when was the last time you were actually in a Decent bowl game? Your lossing national title year?

[smc24224]

FSU > Refs + Miami

[tshand1024]

This is why refs like this need to get punched in the face by players or coaches. If they fear retaliation for making bogus calls, they won't make bogus calls.

[flagatorsrock8]

Football is a joke now. Any hit that looks remotely hard, legal or not, is now being penalized as illegal, and any hit that even looks illegal is now an ejection. The NCAA and its referees are failing miserably at legislating hitting in college football. The members of the crew of the FSU-Miami game should be suspended for at least one game; this is a horrible call and shows little to no comprehension of what an illegal hit actually is.

[brianpate22]

To the refs that officiated this game here's a big fuck you!! Don't quit your day jobs faggots, Go noles

[StephenNorrisua]

I'm an Alabama fan cut checked this game out. Some of the worst calls I've seen in a while. The "you hit that guy too hard" call is really bugging me this season. especially when completely clean. I get the launching head first at their head, but the flag anything hard hit. (which is needed to make important defense stops like this one.)

[N1ckJu5t0wN3DU]

DEATH

[apujols13]

I agree he shouldn't have been ejected.

[indianapoliscolts914]

That game had some of the worst officiating I've ever seen. They obviously were trying to spoon feed that game to Miami...

[fabfive8]

THANX TO THE REFS FOR TRYING THEIR BEST TO SCREW THE NOLES...THEY WERE GONNA BLOW THE EWWW OUT ONCE AGAIN. THIS AINT THE 80S OR EARLY 90S ANYMORE TAKE YA SWAGGA AND THAT "L" HOME WIT YA

[SweetCherriesxO]

From where I was sitting yesterday that hit looked like it was a hit from the head and not shoulder. It was a nasty hit too, but yeah totally horrible call when they replayed it on screen. Doak blew up after that call. I think it was the loudest the stadium got the whole game. Go Noles!

[murcarmag]

This TERRIBLE call needs to make prime-time news, so that maybe something will get done to prevent these types of calls. They are completely unfair, plus they potentially change the outcome of games.

[grantfsu79]

I never knew Stevie Wonder was an ACC ref...

[DRitzification]

What the fuck was that Ref smoking??? Nigel should of dropped his ass too. I respect him being classy though, Nigel see you in the NFL my dude. Keep doing work.

[seminolesforlife1]

the biggest BULLSHIT call ever. and worst called game. GO NOLES!!!!!!!!!

[242baseballboy]

I was at tht game fans went crazy almost broke the stadium lol go Noles!

[BIGGACE850]

fuckin Refs been shittin us all year! clean hit and not only a flag, u get ejected?? I predict year 2020 tackle football is goin to be 2 hand touch smh!!

[unholyd]

My god the refs try to keep miami in that game. ACC wrost refs ever!!!

[starspeckledeyes]

Doak (the stadium)was livid when they threw him out! But those refs still could won that game for Miami

[solomonredsox]

I hope Nigel put that fucker In the hospital. That's the shit that make me love football but a call like that is absolute bull shit. Fuck the Refs, fuck miami. 3 of the last 4 mother fucker!!

[jcpasilk]

what a complete bullshit call. the pussification of this sport is becoming alarming!

[pimpfluid69]

ACC = Another Crappy Call

[zachattack1942]

Yeah the ball was intercepted after the hit, for sure. ACC OFFICIALS, MAKE THIS RIGHT!

[dirtman119]

Sucks to be U

[MBK618]

This was a terrible call! Nigel got ejected and they totally missed the fact the Dawkins intercepted the ball after the hit! It should have closed the game out with our slurricanes scoring any more than 7 points!

[tbl2604]

complete horse shit on this call just like mike harris's fumble that got called back

[xLIV3WIR3x]

Pickory Harris should've been ejected for exposing Byrd. 

[wantubod07]

@xLIV3WIR3x  agree complete lol

[MasterofBeast]

I enjoyed the "you fucking suck" from someone in the stands that was broadcast all over the nation. that is exactly what we are thinking.

[aaron8793]

@MasterofBeast Me too!!! I'm glad the whole nation heard it.

[Dauntless12]

@MasterofBeast. Just watched the gave on Tivo. The voice you're referencing is mine. Maybe I shouldn't have used such language, but I totally stand by the statement.

[Dauntless12]

@Dauntless12 The ACC officials are an embarrassment. After the game a crowd of fans was jeering the officials as they boarded vans for the trip to the airport. One of the crew members, not a referee but still a member of the crew was laughing, pointing and taunting the fans. He even flipped them off. All while wearing a hat and shirt that proudly displayed the ACC logo. The calls and their behavior were ridiculous.

[encycl07pedia]

@Dauntless12 99% of the time I spend booing during a college football game is against the refs. They are pitiful human beings and I hope the ACC fires every single one from this game.

[aaron8793]

@encycl07pedia I agree completely!! Every one of them refs should be fired!

[doujinshi06]

@Dauntless12 hopefully someone recorded that and posted it online

[brookins9621]

@Dauntless12 This kind of this is something that needs to be posted somewhere more important. Call ESPN and let them know of this or something. I'm so sick of watching ACC refs blow games for teams especially FSU, their biggest money-making program.

[DisregardingLaw]

@MasterofBeast haha That was me! I had no idea it was on TV... they really shouldn't put the mic in front of me if they are planning on making calls like that...

[FSUNolez06]

@DisregardingLaw sure it was

[suckittrebek619]

Worst officiated game I've ever watched. Refs were clearly calling the game in Miami's favor. These idiots need to be kept as far away from a football field as possible.

[goldnole75]

The refs showed their hands when they tossed the flag for the so-called downing

on the 11/2 yard line and This with Bradham was Fucked up Bullshit on a legal hit OM Fricken god you damn idiot refs

[smurfpapa33]

I also wasnt aware...even if it was a helmet to helme hit..that you get automatically ejected? BSSSSS just like Reid last year against MD..eff the ACC

[gonolz]

FANTASTIC HIT!!!!!!!

[jlaconte1]

Worst officiating I've ever seen, I hope these refs get stage three syphilis for this brutal, ridiculous performance

[smith89beast]

@jlaconte1 HAHAHAHAHAHA

[aaron8793]

@jlaconte1 I agree completely!!! The lead ref should be fired after this game if not all of them!!!

[BMBubba84]

I love the guy in the background yelling "YOU SUCK... YOU F***ing suck!" lol classic

[encycl07pedia]

Stanford Samuels is laughing his ass off.

[jlamanna16]

@encycl07pedia First thing I thought of when this went down... I was at the game when Samuels blew up Roscoe Parrish in the rain. This was a joyous dose of dejå vu.

[abrescj]

lmao @ the fan "you fuckers suck"

[NEATOitsRYAN]

It was LaRon Byrd that got demolished, not Benjamin... but thank you thank you THANK YOU for posting this vid like a boss. GO NOLES!!! SUCKS TO BE "U"

[aaron8793]

@NEATOitsRYAN Thanks for correcting me, I posted it quick and thought it was travis benjamin.

[motonole]

I was there- the refs started screwing FSU on the very first play, and never stopped. Duh U should have been flagged every single play for too many men on the field- 11 + the officiating crew. THE worst performance byofficials I've ever seen, and we STILL KICKED THIER ASS!!!

[LetsGetShaytarded]

What the FUCK kind of call was that???

[daldevs99]

terrible, terrible call. bradham is only guilty of knocking the sh!t out of him. absolutely legal though.

[kbpfsu07]

If you think Nigel should have been ejected you have no concept of football. Textbook hit.
