They should add to the rule, if a player is ejected from the game the player shall sit out the next game as well.

My reasoning behind this is if the team that's leading and obviously gonna win the game wants to take a cheap shot, they have nothing to lose.

The Florida game pissed me off win Poole got ejected, he walked from the sideline smiling and high-fiving other Florida players. No big deal to him though (and probably didn't bother the coaches), but let him sit out the next game and coaches might care then.

Just my thoughts, what say you?

Should be the same as fighting...rule should be the same! Also this ten second crap with the helmet coming off has got to go. The same player had his helmet hit the turf in the second half.

If you get ejected in the 2nd half you have to sit out the next game. That's already a rule

Let the NCAA officials review a hit to determine if it is blatant enough to sit out the next game.
These players want to be on ESPN highlight reel or something. It's like they don't know how to tackle or wrap them up.

I thought I heard Danielson say Poole was ejected from this game, and didn't mention the next game.

come to think of it,if they would eject the player from the game that it happens in and suspend them from playing in the next 2 games,it would definitely get there attention big time and get the coaches on the players too

Until they institute rules that really make one think about their actions, it's a hallow rule.

The rule says :If a player is disqualified in the first half for targeting, the penalty requires sitting out the remainder of that game. If the disqualification occurs in the second half, the player also will be disqualified for the first half of the following game.

My point is it should be more.

I say it's a good rule the way it is. A player deserves to have a chance to play every game in a fair way. If they make a play that isn't safe, then they similarly deserve to miss that game.

As, do I. This is basically a cheap shot rule. If you're flagged for is, sit out two games. If you're flagged a second time, sit out four. If you're flagged again, your season is over. Without stiff penalties, no one is going to reconsider what they are doing.

I like that idea. Sorta like getting points for traffic violations. Eventually, if you get enough your license gets suspended.

I see the spirit of this rule and can even get behind it, but I still think there is way too much left to be subjective. I like that it has to be reviewed... what I don't like is if it is ruled to NOT be a cheap shot, the penalty still stands, which is completely crazy.

Should go with how soccer does an ejection. After a red card your team cannot replace you. Coaches would make it stop if the alternative was having to play defense with only 10. If that is too harsh, maybe treat it more like a game misconduct in hockey and allow a replacement player after a long power play.

i agree completely but if you're talking about beyond the game it happens in (save the first half of the next game if the penalty happens in the 2nd half) then you have to have some sort of review board to look at it after the game. as for the penalty incurring a loss in the game it happens in if it's overturned later, i say tough ****, you shouldn't have put yourself in that position to have it called that closely to begin with. actually tackling players by using your arms instead of trying to blow someone up would eliminate a lot of the calls being made.

That has got to be the dumbest rule the NCAA has come out with ever. You're penalizing a team for absolutey nothing.

I'd say that the clock running on a possession change a few years back was worse. That only lasted one season, which was one season too long.

I like this rule. I was calling for it years ago after a play involving LSU and Mississippi State, which actually would have resulted in the offensive player being ejected.

You think the penalty yards should stand even if the ejection is overturned?

That was a textbook example of targeting in the Ole Miss/Alabama game. It's obvious that it will be selectively enforced in the SEC.
