Re: Week 7 UNI FB playoffs vs Portland State Vikings

Anyone else want to continue arguing before I post these pictures?

Just watched it again. Clearly shoulder to shoulder.

This is a different story. Whether or not it's targeting and whether or not it gets over turned.

If it wasn't targeting, it will be overturned. That's not happening.

It starts before contact where he is clearly below his shoulder, second one he makes contact, with the upper arm/shoulder, third one contact continues at the shoulder, fourth one he begins pushing him off at the shoulder, fifth one finishes that push off.







Below the shoulder is not targeting. If a player ducks into the hit, it's not targeting (not that he hit him above the shoulders anyway.

Feel free to spin away.

That's not true. Something happening and something being overturned are very separate.

We'll have to agree to disagree (with the caveat that I was correct of course��). I feel like ban right now.

Read rule 9-1-4. It's targeting.

'Contact to head or neck area with [sic] shoulder. When in doubt, it is a foul'

I can't believe we're arguing about this.

Also I'm not sure if you posted photos but I am not seeing anything in your post.

I've never seen the "when in doubt, it's a foul." That makes more sense.

Otherwise it was not contact to the head or neck area, so that's why we are arguing.

Ah yes I see the little boxes where there should be pics but they're not loading. Oh well, I think this is similar to a political argument-- my mind is made up. We won't have him for the first half next week and hopefully that doesn't affect the outcome of the game too much.

Cant see the pictures, tried in 3 different browsers. But I already watched it and agree it wasnt targeting.

I don't think they overturn such calls when there was a replay review anyway. I think that only applies to games w/o replay.

I still don't think it was targetting, but arguing about it is pointless. (oh, and I am able to see the pictures that TP posted)
