BAMA REF HELPING BAMA IN OTHER GAMES!!
Besides Arkjy and OM, has Bama benefited from targeting calls in 67% of their SEC games?
Just answer the question, moron, instead of talking about who the actual refs were!

To dimwit:
1. I laid out my assumptions (made the overall season estimate higher compared to last year) AND built in the assumption that no more calls will benefit Alabama (which is generous given that 1/3 of the regular season games are left to be played). Further, even if another school has 4 calls that favor them in the exact same way it does Alabama, it would likely be 1 school...at most. You can, of course, reject these assumptions.
2. Rules really aren't rules. Rules are interpreted. That's the point here. We likely have differences of opinion about a targeting call against LSU this week, a targeting no-call in favor of Alabama, and a targeting reversal in favor of Auburn. It could be coincidence that Alabama comes out on top here. Or maybe they're better coached. Sure, argue that. But let's not pretend that there isn't wiggle room here for targeting to be interpreted. And it just so happens that these rules are interpreted by Bama grads and fans in striped shirts who sit behind tv screens in Birmingham (a fact that you cannot dispute).
But hey, chalk it up to whining. Or winning. Or whatever.

Good stuff, but this is a useless place for it. This board is filled with LSU fans and other SEC school fans who also hate LSU. They do not represent their entire fanbase, though. I have aggie friends who are true fans and hate Alabama because of shite like this. They actually care about the well being of their school. You won't find that here though.
Everyone but Alabama fans should look at this as (at the very least) interesting, but they won't here. Keep up the good work, though.

So your responses to my post are that 1) You made all your numbers up, and everyone must simply accept them, and 2) You don’t particularly care whether or not the players in question actually committed the foul for which they were penalized? You people are all fricking retards. Why I try to have an intelligent debate with you I don’t know, because you lack the basic qualifications to engage in one. Please, by all means, continue your idiot party. I’ll see myself to the door.

Answer this...Has Bama benefited from the targeting penalty in almost 70% of their SEC games?
And...
How many times has a Bama player been called for targeting this year?
Also...When was the LAST TIME a Bama player has been called for targeting?
Yet you want an honest debate and accuse us of having the inability to have one?
GFY

Record books wont have a single mention of D.White in 50 years. Only that on November 3rd, 2018 L8U lost their 8th game in a row to the eventual Champs of '18, and the GOAT college team Alabama by the largest margin ever in Death Valley.
366 - 9

Again, another poster who cannot debate on the merits of the OP!

Yeah, but you calling something against your BOSS has NOTHING to do with your bias?
let's have a serious discussion here...
Can you?

And your serious discussions have always been that you are the most penalized team in the NCAA. That you ALWAYS out-panalize your opponents..
That is until it comes to targeting, right?

Want me to link the countless threads of Bama fans using this as a weak excuse?
Yeah, you may get those calls late in the third and fourth after you're up big; but WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME A BAMA PLAYER WAS TOSSED FOR TARGETING?
Don't make me make you look as stupid as you already are!

Bruh. You MUST be an Alabama fan if my explanation for where my numbers came from means "I made all my numbers up." Argue with specific assumptions I made with the numbers. Don't discount the math (which is compelling) just because you don't do want to think through my explanation. lol. Wow.
And I do care if the targeting fouls were committed—but "actually committed" is where the interpretation comes in. If these calls were black and white, uncontested calls, then we wouldn't be having this national conversation about what counts as targeting.
Nothing about your response says "intelligent debate." But it does scream "Bama fan" and, likely, "Bama graduate."
