Problem is, there is a break down of the footage from different angles. It includes the real speed of the play (not a slow motion returned to normal speed right before Day lands), it then breaks down the whole event in slow motion and stills. It shows DAY left the ground BEFORE the LSU player rolled over 3 feet (hips). The stills are telling. He was in the air before the guy moved/rolled.

Not only the that, it includes the angle showing both feet never hit the player. It shows that he actually landed on the LSU player with a bent knee(meaning tried to avoid placing all of his weight).

He did it twice in one game (in addition to getting at least one personal foul for unnecessary roughness) and he has a history of doing it in the past.

You are seeing what you want to see. That's called "motivated reasoning" and your post is a great example of it.
