      I didn't think he launched. He never really left the ground. So based on what the commentators said, I didn't agree with the call. But now I have to agree he targeted the head/neck with his shoulder.

      One question: is "Targeting" a penalty in BCS football? Or just in FCS? I don't think I've ever seen it called in a BCS game.
      To be fair, that particular announcer was the lesser of the pair. Though he really needs to shelve the phrase "inner Fran Tarkenton."
      "Well, that escalated quickly."

        I'd rather hear that than a Johnny Football comparison all game

          I could go without either when talking about a guy who didn't complete a pass until the 2nd half.

          Between the Seahawks game and last night I've never heard Tark mentioned so many times

            That's a low bar. Agreed.

              That, and his constant use of "keep Bailey and Smith going east-west, not north-south" practically every time UNI had the ball.

                That was another inferior opponent we played last night, regardless of seeding or records. NDSU will take a near perfect game to beat Saturday morning. Bailey and Smith need to both go over 100 and we need to hold NDSU to 20 or less to win, imho.

                  His commentary was so bad that after awhile it was downright amusing. One comment that stood out was his defense of a pass-interference no call on a PSU d-back saying he did a great job of looking back for the ball. As he's making this comment, they show a replay of this kid mauling Fountain and not even pretending to look back.

                    We laughed about that as well.

                      This came to mind as soon as he was brought up in this thread. I laughed so hard!!!

                        funny, but he did the exact opposite earlier in the game - UNI was called for PI and all he could say was Kilfoy didn't look back, just as the replay showed Kilfoy looking back and making contact. I was beginning to wonder if they even had a monitor.

                          He's an offensive lineman. He had decent insight on anything related to line play. Everything else these past 2 weeks makes your ears bleed and your head hurt.

                            He did have very good insight to line play, pointing out Jacob making his way down field using the stalk block technique rather than just running to the second level was somethings I don't think anyone else has ever pointed out to the depth that he did.

                            Anything outside of the tackle box and he was struggling though.

                              It is the same rule in the FBS too. The North Texas board was all lit up when their star receiver Carlos Harris did the same thing to a player in their game against Texas- El Paso. He too was ejected.

                              The guys there had the same arguments you guys have made, but after the hit Harris shamelessly celebrated on the sidelines.

                                He did have great insight into line play and a few other things I can't remember but it seemed to me that he was going out of his way to agree with/justify the officials' calls/no-calls.
