Refs who agree it was not targeting:
- Pac 12 Replay official
- TV Ref commentator
- Head of Pac 12 officials: “The explanation that was told to me was that it wasn’t forcible enough,” Day said on his conversation with the Pac-12, whose officials were calling the game.
- National Coordinator of Officials Steve Shaw: “I then asked to speak with the head of officials, Steve Shaw. He explained to me that the hit didn’t go right to Marvin’s head. It wasn’t a shot right on his head but to his shoulder."

Go for it.
Seems like you started out hot, arguing about the call rather than talking about the subjective nature of calling penalties in football.
I stopped there, but did you happen to provide a positive argument for why you think it was targeting?

This is the best he could do:

Nope. He changed quickly to it was unnecessary roughness, but can't explain that one, either. The closest I could get was he seems to think a WR in the act of catching a football can't be hit.

BIG 10 soft.

quote:Since it doesn't seem like you read the rest of my post, I'll repeat myself in response to your concern about MHJ's impact:
No, I'm arguing that our offense that scored 6 times and put up 38 points with him was completely the same.
What do you suppose happens when you don't have to account for Marv Jr.? Your coaches and your defense know this. Why don't you?
MHJ was absent from the game for three (3) OSU offensive drives.
Specifically, he went out of the game with 35 seconds left in the 3rd quarter and OSU settled for a FG.
From then on, there were three offensive drives, and here they are:
Drive 1: 3 plays, 9 yards, and 1:23 off the clock, resulting in a punt
Drive 2: 11 plays, 45 yards, and 5:58 off the clock, resulting in a FG
Drive 3: 7 plays, 43 yards, and :51 off the clock, resulting in a missed FG that sealed the game
Only one of those two drives was a complete dud. The other two drives had OSU driving the field with the opportunity to put points on the board, and when you analyze those drives, you can see that pressure from UGA was the biggest factor.
So yes, you can talk about 38 points compared to 3 all you like, but when you take a look at the actual drives he was absent for, it's not as impactful as you want to make it.

I'd rather be entertained
At least you're admitting it and it's out in the open for people to see who you are.

Not really.
You and FooLaneCraig are similar, though. You try to pass subjective bullshite as objective fact. When I point it out, you move onto something else and demand that I have the discussion you want to have.
Not interested in that any more than I'm interested in "winning," whatever the frick that means here.

In other words, you can’t defend your position, the very essence of avoiding the discussion.

Of course. Vary between who you ask?
Opinions of Homers, haters, excuse makers, and people who don’t understand the rules
Vs
Opinions of people who matter in the proper enforcement of penalties, and people who understand the rules

Look at you pretending these folks aren't on both sides of any discussion.
