forcible contact at the head or neck area
The neck and chest are two different body parts
If you're still confused, I'm sure there's a 5 year old that can explain the difference to you.

Clearly not targeting. Lead with his hands.
Reading is fundamental.
Read the rules, Doofus.

Point out where it says pushing someone in the chest is targeting.
I'll wait.

Your interpretation and understanding the English language should be a study on the water tables of Louisiana being polluted and a leading cause of mental retardation.
Read the rules idiot.

Pushing someone in the chest isn't targeting
We're all still waiting for you to point out where it says otherwise.

When in question, it is a foul (Rules 2-27-14 and 9-6). (A.R. 9-1-4-I-VI)

:sigh:
By letter of the rule, it was targeting.
I'm simply looking at it from the strictest interpretation of the rule and processing that with the available video.

He didn't lower his head, make contact with the crown, launch into the player or initiate forcible contact to the head or neck.
Again, explain what part of the hit was targeting. We are still waiting.

Explain what part of the rule this falls under please.
The proof is in the video link you provided.
Clearly his hands hit chest, but his helmet also made contact with Fitz helmet, thus targeting.
Perhaps the rules need to be changed, but as they're written now and with the video you provided, it's targeting.

Look at the video link brah, helmet to helmet contact is made.
Clearly by the rule, its targeting.

You do realize that a helmet making contact with a helmet is not targeting, correct?
No where in the rule does it say that. Maybe you should take your own advice and learn to interpret what you're reading.

The language of the rule shows it was a correct call but I disagree with the rule in general. I also think you either eject the player and they should be back for the next game or eject the player and allow an appeal process to return for the next game.
Targeting in CFB is like offsides in soccer. The language allows the ref to much latitude to interpret the action of the player involved. It seems clear cut on the contact but is not on the intent which will always be subjective.
