Penn St gets away with targeting final 2 minutes

[-LVhusker-]

Terrible no call

No. It was just a good, clean hit.

no better than either NU calls, he absolutely lowered head, either it is or it isn't for everyone

Another poster said it earlier today: "Targeting is at the discretion of each crew."

Does an official in the booth or in Chicago look at each one?

Don’t disagree, if only they had called Williams’ hit the same way. Absolutely no difference between those plays.

I don’t really buy the anti-Nebraska stuff. Just tired of seeing three or four Big Ten darlings get all the calls.

That was absolute trash. Launched into him and head shot.

They also allowed child rape and still get to have a football program...

Two years in a row #13 for Penn State got away with obvious targeting vs IU. Saturday on IU's last carry of the first half, Scott fumbled. They went to review to see if any time left and was clear as day. Last year he and another Lion vs Whop should have been bounced on THE SAME PLAY. Instead it was a game altering fumble and neither guy was ejected. Whop left with concussion for rest of game and the next week vs UM.

You had to be thinking they were going to change the last play.

Whether it did or didn't cross the plain of the goal line, I had already prepared myself for the impending doom of a reversal. As a long suffering IU football fan of 40+ years, I've had lots of experience with kicks to the sack kind of losses.
