Hell, why don't they play in dresses with fricking flags. That was not targeting. Did their helmets make contact? Yes. Did he lower his helmet to make contact ? No.

This is dumb. If the fix was in they'd have never let ASU get that second shot at the 2pt conversion.

The implication you are making here is absurd. A form tackle is not impossible there.

I’m going to need to read the targeting rule to fully understand how a shot straight to the head of a defenseless receiver from the helmet of a defender isn’t targeting.

It’s a foul.
The rule is there for a reason, and those hits are avoidable.

Pretty much is. If he lowers then it does look more like targeting. You want perfect when it's not possible.
