So getting there quickly is now a penalty? What do you have to slow down to a light jog to tackle now?
No not at all. You just can't hit the QB while he's in a throwing posture above the shoulders or below the knees.
Bust his arse still, just do it in his midsection. Not that hard to understand.

The 8th ref will enforce the Saban rule.

What? I was referring to running "unabated" into the QB. Not where they hit.
ETA: Oh, I see. I didn't connect the two. They meant running unabated into the QB AND hitting them above the shoulders or below the knees. I'm retarded. Carry on.

I think most understand the rule. But is some dumbass ref going to throw the flag if the defender gets tripped up and grabs the QB falling down below the knees? I realize by the rule he'd no longer be unabated but I can easily see where a ref is going to frick this up.
