The sad thing is you have zero shits about the guy from Bama hitting yours with a combo.
I made fun of Bama for three days here as they whined about our “dirty play.” The truth is Southerners are snowflakes when it comes to football.

Before long it will be flag football and the players in steel cages.

Clear case of targeting. I happen to be an expert on this subject.

Launching and leading with the crown of the helmet to the head or neck area ticks literally every single box of the definition a targeting penalty.
What’s that you say? Not launching OR leading with the crown of helmet?

The fact L7U fans are showing such blatant disregard for player safety is just sad.
Did gumps show the same regard for player safety when they sent death threats to their own player? I'm curious what your standard is since y'all seem to apply it selectively.

Literally the opposite, OP, but ok

GTFOH...it was 110% clear as day that he led with his ARMS EXTENDED OUT and shoved him in the UPPER CHEST AREA. That is a fact. He did not launch himself, nor did he lead with the crown of his helmet. It was a total bullshite call. Now it's safe to assume that pushing a player to the ground is targeting if we go by what we saw. And exactly how was he defenseless? He had just threw the ball and was staring at White, so he knew he was coming. It's not like White blindsided him. Like I said...total bullshite!

I really hope Tua loses his head in this game and gets taken out... Bama fans will be trampling over each other to the nearest bridge to jump off.

I don't get it. Why do people think the White hit isn't targeting?

I don’t get it either.
Play was called on the field. Reviewed in the booth.
It’s not like Bama has some all-encompassing influence in the SEC that they could affect that call.

watch some videos of it (normal ones at normal speed especially the one taken from the side that you can see it from) and see for your self

Because they can read and interpret the rule.

He initiated contact by shoving Fitzgerald in the chest which creates incidental contact with the helmet.
quote:
No player shall target and make forcible contact to the head or neck area of a defenseless opponent (See Note 2 below) with the helmet, forearm, hand, fist, elbow or shoulder. This foul requires that there be at least one indicator of targeting (See Note 1 below). When in question, it is a foul (Rules 2-27-14 and 9-6). (A.R. 9-1-4-I-VI)
Note 1: "Targeting" means that a player takes aim at an opponent for purposes of attacking with forcible contact that goes beyond making a legal tackle or a legal block or playing the ball. Some indicators of targeting include but are not limited to:
Launch—a player leaving his feet to attack an opponent by an upward and forward thrust of the body to make forcible contact in the head or neck area
A crouch followed by an upward and forward thrust to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area, even though one or both feet are still on the ground
Leading with helmet, shoulder, forearm, fist, hand or elbow to attack with forcible contact at the head or neck area
Lowering the head before attacking by initiating forcible contact with the crown of the helmet
No where in there is "If their helmets touch, it's targeting." White committed none of the indicators of targeting.
So, like I said, we are saying it's not targeting because we can actually interpret what the rule is saying.

It's blatant targeting. In fact I don't think there's a better textbook example out there.

If you're going to troll at least put effort into it.
