(Seriously though, I think DC could hit 'em at a 40-50 percent clip from the oppoents 45 yard line. Yep...62 yarders.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUpreacherman22 3,888 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 From the camera angle I couldn't see the hold, but that appeared to just be a rare bad kick for Carlson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite sure they wouldn't make stuff up but I wouldn't put it past them to misinterpret or make a mistake. Mostly I was just commenting on the lack of quality in their broadcasting. Out of likes for the day, but I hear ya! War Eagle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabby 1,958 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 The offense is playing well considering the multiple number of injuries. however it is evident that our running game will be non existent next week unless we have Pettway. Johnson is adequate but he isn't the answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan-0 479 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I heard Gene Stallings on ESPN radio a couple of nights ago and he was very critical of SEC teams playing FCS schools like A&M, UT-Chattanooga, UTSA, etc. He made the point that these schools are basically shortchanging their fans when they play schools like these. Watching this game, I tend to agree with him. I would just as soon watch a scrimmage. My first year at AU was 1983. Our non-conference opponents were Southern Miss, Texas, FSU, Ga. Tech, and Maryland (who had Boomer Esiason). My how times have changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a blind sided block but it wasn't above the shoulders. Yep. It wasn't helmet to helmet and the A&M player turned his head and didn't lead with the crown of his helmet, he led with his shoulder. He hit Williams in the chest/shoulder, not the head/helmet. It was a missed call. I hope this officiating crew doesn't call anymore games for us. I'd hate for them to make bad calls that go against us in future games. Fortunately, most of the bad calls tonight have went our way though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately, most of the bad calls tonight have went our way though. Officials disagree. Replay officials disagree. SEC consulting officials disagree. There is more to the rule than that. Not saying the rule as written is a great rule or not subject to error, but in this instance, I think the "defenseless player" bit definitely applies.

First time all year I have seen bama completely unmotivated. Hurts not impressive throwing at all. Take away their run game and they become very pedestrian offensively.

It happens more often than the casual fan realizes. defenseless player, absolutely, but there wasn't any contact above the shoulders to make it a targeting infraction, IMO.

There is more to the rule than that. Not saying the rule as written is a great rule or not subject to error, but in this instance, I think the "defenseless player" bit definitely applies. But "defenseless player" falls under targeting. Targeting is contact above the shoulders to the head or neck area, or leading with the crown of the helmet, neither of which occured on the hit. Since there wasn't targeting, he shouldn't have been a "defenseless player" by rule. If I'm misinterpreting that then WarTiger is more than welcome to correct me, https://www.afca.com/article/article.php?id=2342 Quote Targeting and Initiating Contact to Head or Neck Area of a Defenseless Player (Rule 9-1-4) No player shall target and initiate contact to the head or neck area of a defenseless opponent with the helmet, forearm, fist, elbow or shoulder. When in question, it is a foul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
