Here's the rule - BigDave MU - 1/1 16:34:04

Here’s the core problem, weve had 10 years of the rule being - alwaysright MU - 1/1 16:44:07

Not true. It specifically addresses targeting against - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/1 17:06:46

Targeting means targeting not contacting. - alwaysright MU - 1/1 17:07:55

Read the damned rule, it is clearly spelled out(nm) - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/1 17:08:54

I know what the rule says, and I clearly stated that the - alwaysright MU - 1/1 17:17:36

You are way too emotionally involved in this. Did Sark - tigerman81 MU - 1/1 17:09:49

I was hoping UT would win. It was a horrible call that had - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/1 17:31:15

Their on air rules analysist didn't even hesitate before - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/1 17:56:27

You're confusing targeting with spearing. (nm) - phrejd KC - 1/1 16:56:13

If they hadn’t quit calling spearing, we wouldn’t have a - alwaysright MU - 1/1 17:01:43

Correct. Which is different than spearing (nm) - phrejd KC - 1/1 17:07:45

Could care less who won,objectively,it was obvious targeting - Macgrantt MU - 1/1 16:37:28

Completely disagree in both cases - BigDave MU - 1/1 18:47:10

It was absolutely targeting. Not sure why they - Outsider MU - 1/1 16:37:24

RE: Need to be an investigation into that non-targeting call - MOCO SON MU - 1/1 16:33:53

Just remove targeting as a penalty. It’s not called - MrTruman2U MU - 1/1 16:30:59

It's a game changing rule which makes it even more important - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/1 16:36:48

I'd argue that letting a texas player be wide open two - tigerman81 MU - 1/1 16:56:40

They get that penalty called and those plays never happen(nm) - DHighlander NWMSU - 1/1 17:04:47

The problem is the call was reviewed and allowed to stand - OntheMark MU - 1/1 18:58:21

Calls get made and not made all the time. Thats the game - tigerman81 MU - 1/1 17:09:08
