When your team can learn how to play the game properly let us know.

So you'd be okay with Rashard Lawrence giving Tua this treatment - with no penalty...?



SECTION 32. Fighting
ARTICLE 1. Fighting is any attempt by a player, coach or squad member in
uniform to strike an opponent in a combative manner unrelated to football.
Such acts include, but are not limited to:
a. An attempt to strike an opponent with the arm(s), hand(s), leg(s) or foot
(feet), whether or not there is contact.

During the second half, players shall not participate in a fight.
PENALTY—15 yards. For dead-ball fouls, 15 yards from the succeeding
spot. Automatic first down for Team B fouls if not in conflict
with other rules. Disqualification for the remainder of the
game and the first half of the next game [S7, S27 or S38, and
S47]. For fighting in the last game of a season, those with
remaining eligibility shall serve suspensions during the first
game of the next season for which they are eligible.



Alabama fans would go absolutely apeshit if the refs let LSU get away with this.
