No reason to apologize.

He doesn't make the rules. He doesn't enforce the rules.

Nope. He just benefits from selective enforcement.

No reason to argue this point one way or another. It's not his job to enforce the rules.

Such a horse shite no call. I like how Birmingham decided to change the rule as the game was going on to protect bama. Clowns

Was definitely targeting, and the fact that the refs didn't call it is bullshite.

But it's not Saban's job to apologize for a hit that was ruled clean. Even if the ruling is laughably absolute horse shite, which it was.

What did you expect him to say? Nothing to see here.

Don't about 20% of tackles of a ball carrier (especially a RB) involve helmet to helmet contact?

Does a kick returner deserve more protection than a RB. Maybe, but the current rule doesn't distinguish.

Either way, SEC refs have been consistent. Two weeks before in UT and A&M game on a kick return #12 from A&M launched helmet to helmet with Berry from UT. Knocked him the frick out and caused a fumble. No call for targeting.

People argue because the rule is kind of bull shite and not very well defined. Letter of the law that's targetting, but not surprising it wasn't called. 5 minutes later aggy blocks a defender from the front and is ejected. No sense or consistency to this bull shite.

There was no helmet to helmet contact at all on that hit.
