[Orange defense]

Targeting

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

That’s a BS call that wasn’t targeting

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Targeting?

Should be and then young tried to twist his head off. Should be 2 penalties.

 

[joevol33]

Lowered the head with helmet to helmet.

Yep

 

[zeppelin128]

Wow, SEC zebras got it right for a change.

 

[golfballs]

That’s the rule

 

[hog88]

That’s a BS call that wasn’t targeting

By the rule it was 100% targeting.

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

That might turn the momentum

Textbook helmet to helmet

 

[LittleVol]

So Lawrence ducks to get lower and is then getting at a level where the defenders head is...

Not fair...

 

[BowlBrother85]

I understand that is the rule but it's cheap as hell. The QB was crouching. This is football for softies.

 

[TJVol95]

Targeting welcome to our world OSu fans lol

 

[Lawrence Wright]

SEC refs don’t fool around with targeting calls.

If it’s close, they call it.

 

[GreyWolf1129]

Impact on OSU defense?

 

[volinbham]

I understand that is the rule but it's cheap as hell. The QB was crouching. This is football for softies.

either way the defender was coming with the helmet first

 

[zeppelin128]

Lol backup looked absolutely terrified.

 

[BowlBrother85]

There is nothing wrong with that.

 

[BreatheUT]

Now they are giving Clemson some calls. Ross was pushing too.

The targeting rules are BS but by the rule it was targeting.

 

[volinbham]

There is nothing wrong with that.

I prefer the day when we didn’t let players have water when they messed up
