They’re showing Tejas v Arid State. Did that game really turn on a late targeting no-call? Was is targeting? I didn’t see the game, but I saw the clip and it looked like head to head on a player in a defenseless position. But I’m not anywhere to look up the rules and definitions. Help a bro out here. I know we had a lot on eyes here on it.

I think it was, by definition. It was a huge call that would directly impact the outcome whichever way they called it.

Yes. When smaller schools call to discuss his team’s offense, he does conference calls with them. He also teaches the offense to new coaches.

HC will ask him in game to suggest plays as his HC is OC and play caller also. In game, he has freedom to suggest plays based on what he is seeing.
Primary scheme is off season work, but he works with OL coach and RB coach on run game for each individual game in season. Then after meeting with offensive staff for total game plan, he meets one on one with head coach for final game plan and analytics.

And this is a P4 school?

Sugar Bowl resale values have plummeted. I saw tickets under $20 on StubHub to get into the game.

Tons of Georgia and Notre Dame fans have already left New Orleans.

not surprising. Even without an attack the postponement is going to screw up a lot of fans but you add extra inconvenience and some fear and it’s a lot to ask for a middle round game.

According to bullet note #3 every offensive player handling the ball is guilty many times during a season.

And this is another example of legit criticism of this rule I feel. If it's dangerous and you want to take it out of the game why only penalize the defensive players and allow the offense to repeatedly violate bullet point number 3?

By the way that rant is not directed at you........I just hate the rule because of the ambiguity and inconsistent enforcement.

Understood. I'm not saying I like the rule, just that as the rule is written the play should have been a penalty.

How often is an offensive player hitting a defenseless player? You can put a shoulder into a helmet all day if the recipient isn't defenseless.

Sally is progressing.

A tech called "Shot Spotter" listens to sounds in an area, like a city, and identifies gunshots and their precise location. . . even the type (caliber) of gun probably used. It alerts the PD immediately. Sometimes cops get to the scene before 911 calls are even made.

Pretty soon Sally will be predicting future crimes. I may be in the minority thinking this, but it's a good report.

Shot spotter has been around for years. It is an impressive program.

Not according to that rule you cannot. Forceable contact to the head neck area with a shoulder, helmet, arm or fist..... Doesn't even have to be defenseless......... For the defense anyway.......

It was definitely head to head contact.
Also, the blocked ASU field goal bounced through the uprights without the kicking team touching it and should have counted as a made field goal, per NCAA rules.
