First one's called a cut block, not a chop block. It's a staple of the tripleoption

The video was very fast, but I think the guy blocking him on the shoulders was pulling off

It's not a penalty.

ETA: if you are talking about the nose guard, then yes. I think that was a chop block and is a 15 yard penalty.

Meh. Looks like dude went to the Nick Fairley school of power-bombing.

Exactly.

They play with Tree slamming Godhigh is just an example of the small players GT uses.

First one is definitely a chop block. Didn't watch the second one.

Ogletree went to the LaMichael Fanning school of suplexes I see.

First one is dirty, unless it was a mistake in assignments.

Second one isn't, IMO.

Will the backup NT be ok for next week? Might be important since we are playing more up-tempo at times lately and since Jenkins is almost too fat to play football. TIA.

Im actually not really that upset. I am thankful there wasn't more of that, as this game gets chippy sometimes.

He is actually a 3rd stringer I believe, and Im not sure of his status at the moment.

Well, i hope it's nothing serious. Any other injuries from the game?

Kenny Bell's broken leg is the only one I know of for us.

Im not seeing anything noteworthy. Thornton went down after this chop block, and I'm not hearing anything on his status at all.

I've seen players suspended for plays like this.
