LSU fans wouldn't know. You'd have to ask fans of a team that has actually had to 'vacate' wins.

The problem is the targeting rule isn't just to stop someone who is intentionally trying to hurt someone. It's to try and stop hits altogether that can cause head injury.

The rule is to protect the hitter as much as the guy being hit... See Chuckie Mullins.

It's purpose is to try and make players tackle in a safer way for both players.

IMO it should be called on offensive players that lower their head into the defensive guys as well if you are gonna call it.

He's pretty spot on, but I don't agree with this. Maybe you can say that about someone reviewing it after the fact, but the ref who made the call didn't decide in a split second when he made the call, "hey, here is a great chance to frick LSU in 2 weeks against Bama"

That's a good question?

It's impossible to tell who's under that helmet and shoulder pads, so Just change his number and let him play.

It is very interesting how the team opposing Alabama or about to face them as of late gets a DQ on arguably their best and most impactful player . Not saying anything "dastardly" but it is suspect. Terez Hall from Mizzou and the DB for TN come to mind and if memory serves someone from TAMU got one as well......Interdasting

Maybe those players should stop hitting people in the head.

We get players ejected for targeting in every game. May not be the best support for the REC is out to get you narrative.

When in doubt, it's targeting. Per the rule.

Probably why the White hit stood.

When in doubt, it's targeting.

When your player undoubtedly throws three punches and then knees an opposing player in the back, you let the team discipline them internally

Yay player safety

Yep. Just like when your player clothesline another player after the play is over, you let LSU handle the discipline internally.

Must have missed where the flag wasn't thrown on that play

ETA: frick I thought it was missed completely. my bad, downvote away.

Doesn't change the fact that punches are an immediately ejection and the refs just...didn't. Boutte was ejected from the game, too

it's friday and the garbage call is STILL being talked about in the national media. but bama and the turd riders (uk, uga, auburn, faggie, fla) fans on the rant are saying that lsu fans are going overboard.

I hope they reform the targeting rule this offseason, I think everyone does. I'm not sure anybody likes it.
