The only one that was debatable was makuba’s hit. 

No. There was no indicator of a targeting at all. That is a required element. He didn't lower his head. He didn't launch. The helmet contact was completely incidental. That wasn't close to targeting. Hell, it was even questionable whether the receiver should have been considered defenseless.

SIAP.  which one of you beautiful assholes did this
 

No idea, but I can't decide which is more impressive...finding a Longhorn steer perfectly fine with being a horse, or how well trained that blue heeler is. All around impressive

I've come to believe over the years his Texags persona is largely a bit that has made him a shit ton of $$$.  Nothing about meeting him in person really changed that.  I do think he's a true fan for sure and was a bit down, but I didn't get the impression he was surprised at how it played out.  Like I said, was complimentary of Sark, roster he's stacked, what we've done with NIL etc.

Yep. He’s a cartoon. I do think he largely believes the bullshit he shovels (most aggies do), but much is an act.

Hwy, Zuhn. How you feeling about Ant Hill and the rest of the team now? Have you played the #1 defense before? Cause your ass got shut out on offense. 

Thanks for playing. 

It's even funnier when you watch Zuhn get stood up and knocked back on that play.

I don’t know. I think they stopped allowing him when the Big 12 began. I’m sure their excuse was liability. So we shouldn’t allow theirs. 

I can’t even bring my dog to kids soccer games for fear she will piss on thier artificial turf.  Seeing like we have plenty of reason why their dog shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near our million dollar field.

Curiosity got the best of me and I took a look at the texags game thread. 

Those morons seem to think that if the football crosses the goal line outside the pylon, even though it was in Arch's hand and Arch was in bounds, that means the ball is out of bounds and not a TD.

Like they don't even know the basics of football.

Once I saw it was the side of Mukuba’s helmet contact the face mask of the runner, I knew it wasn’t targeting. 

The officials don't even know what targeting is, so don't be so confident.

To be fair - I thought that was the rule also. Maybe it is in the NFL but who cares now. However I kept wondering how they chose the one yard line. No where close to where it would be if the rule was what I thought. About the 5 inch line

While he is sort of an air head he’s a Texas legend and actually tries to be really thoughtful and inspiring to the guys. He understands ball and understands the team and is actually a resource to guide them.

The rules guy was also a rube though calling that normal hit by Mukaba targeting. They really shouldn’t opine on targeting because when they over tuned it correctly it made it seem like there was some sort of cover up. 
 

It wasn’t targeting, the announcers and rules guy are biased and actively rooting for aggy. Maybe because they wanted a good game, more likely because they don’t respect or like Texas.

Doubt there was any bias involved. Out of all the “rules expert” grifters, Bill Lemonnier is easily the worst and should be ignored or ridiculed. Fowler and Herbstreit have been nothing but respectful of Texas for a while now.

Targeting is first and foremost a defenseless player and intent to lead with the crown of the helmet - neither of which applied on that play.  It was an incidental, glancing blow

But they called targeting on the hit on Mike Davis the last time Texas was in town. It cost aggy the game./every aggy in existence.

Narrator : there was no targeting then.

Herbstreit also has the video where he talks shit about Kyle Field while Fowler laughs.

[Huckleberry 33539]

Yep, Mukuba was clearly delivering a shoulder to the chest and the helmets happened to hit. The issue there is that Lemonnier is correct that intent isn't the rule, what actually happens is and Mukuba did accidentally deliver forcible contact to the head. So the only reason that wasn't targeting is if they ruled that the receiver was no longer defenseless in that instant. It was a very close call and that is a part of the targeting rule that sucks. But I'm not sure changing it makes overall sense because it would decrease player safety.

On that play it would have been better all around for Mukuba to just take out their player's thighs because he was well short of the first down, but that's much easier to say in hindsight than at full speed on the field.

That call was 100% in line with how they called it that year.
