#3 Bama at #6 Tennessee, Saturday Oct 15th @ 2:30pm CT on CBS

[Bigbend1812 12,928]

Damn 4th down give him a chance to catch it Mullet.

[Doc Sam Beckett 5,797]

When the secsecsec moves from CBS, a camera following around Danielson on Saturday at 3:30 might be ppv worthy

Now Gary Daniels describing the zone read and exclaiming that the QB can run it.....  (as if he just saw the play type for the first time in his life)

 

like the zone read hasnt been around for 20 fucking years.

Danielson should have been put out to pasture 10 years ago. 

[52-80 19,205]

Holding doesnt exist for alabama, does it?

54 on bama literally just yanked #6 down to the ground

These Big 12 refs?

[ChiTownDoc 21,154]

LOL, wow.  These refs are b12 ready.  

[WhatTheBuck 28,794]

Lol. No foul for targeting. I’ve seen a hundred plays with less call for targeting get called as targeting. 

[Knoxtnhorn 6,064]

Lol whut?

[hookem48 4,701]

so you can lead with the helmet to helmet as long as your shoulder hits too? huh

[Horn80 6,131]

Horrible call there BOB

[Duane Moore 5,248]

I hope the Aggies can see how hollow their moral victory was last week. Bama is just a different team on offense with Bryce Young. 

[Doc Sam Beckett 5,797]

Lol targeting rules, how do they work? 

[WhatTheBuck 28,794]

If you were going to get called for targeting, getting it with 1:28 left in a half is a good time to do it. That way you barely miss more than a half of play.

[Nivek 16,948]

Double hook em from the nosebleeds. Is that your kin @Knoxtnhorn @Jameslaw121

[hookem48 4,701]

difference in the game is Bama's stupid play on the punt, seems like Tennessee should be ahead by 20

From what I’ve seen in other games you can lead with your shoulder, make first contact with the other player’s shoulder, but if the side of your helmet then happens to make contact with the side of his helmet, that’s not incidental contact. It’s targeting and you’re ejected.

[Beantown Express 2.0 6,559]

I could care less who wins this but that was text book targeting.  Not even close so I don’t understand how that is not called.

Sometimes. Depends. This was targeting, as Fields was running in the open field, and went to spin. 

[redshirtexas 19]

Why didn’t Tennessee use a timeout with 0:15? They had two.

They don’t. That’s the problem. And chances are that if he would’ve been ejected for targeting then the announcers would say, “Yep, that’s textbook targeting and they’re going to call that every time.”

yea, crown of helmet to facemask on a stationary target, like you said, textbook.

yea, that was about as bad a call as there can be

[hookem48 4,701]

Tennessee can't play much better and Bama can't play worse and it's an eight point game.

This is baffling to me, Overshown misses the first half of the Tech game and this isn’t a foul. The infuriating thing is that no one ever has to answer for it. I’m all for protecting players but fuck this stupid ass rule in its current form. The head of officiating for each conference should be forced into a weekly press conference every week to try to defend this horseshit.

I wish I had access to a large digital video database of college football games and could compile a comparison of all the targeting and non-targeting calls, the ones called on the field and waved off, the ones not called on the field but initiated by booth review, etc. There’s no consistency whatsoever.

Football is a dangerous game, I think they should just remove the targeting rule and let kids make the choice.  MMA and Boxing still exist. 

[Huckleberry 33,042]

He didn't overshoot him. That miss was all on the WR.

[ztejas 43,522]

Was that Casey Cain?

So do firearms and vehicles.  You’re gonna play football, buckle up.  You might get a concussion or contusion.  

[hookem48 4,701]

lol

[Hawndoh 2,386]

I've never seen video review to see what down it was.

[Deej 76,858]

How in the fuck do they not know what down it was?

[DigglerontheHoof 21,206]

Danielson needs to be put out to pasture. 

[hookem48 4,701]

holy shit are you kidding me?

MMA and Boxing are niche sports largely because the guys that used to go into boxing go into football now

[The Dude 1,246]

Wtf how does the whole crew lose track of the down

[4th&Five 41,571]

Refs are incompetent at every level.

You would think wouldn't, but sometimes you get Nebraska-Mizzou from back in the day.

Edit - Colorado and Mizzou

[hookem48 4,701]

Colorado says it's 3rd down.

[Js1 85,449]

Counting to 4 is hard in the Sec? 

[Michael Knight 12,989]

how hard is it to count to 4

[bad_teammate 13,220]

Down marker dude is a legend. Making the most of his authority.

[hookem48 4,701]

ok who else was praying they would say it was only 3rd down?

[Sgt Hulk 13,813]

These fu king refs

[AUS-97HORN 11,810]

this is why everyone fucking hates bama.

 

they almost always find a fucking way

[shadow_operative2.0 16,010]

That was rather easy.
