Aggies v Bama

Can't believe there was no flag on that helmet-to-helmet hit. So far the breaks seem to be going against A&M but they're still in it. They've gotta force a punt some time soon though.
 
King Nick just has too many players at the crucial positions. At this rate A&M's defense will be gassed by halftime.

What the öööö are you talking about? A ball-carrier isn't defenseless.

Never said anything about the ball carrier being defenseless, but thanks for the indignant reply.

"In the NCAA, helmet-to-helmet collisions have been banned for years, but they were illegal only when intentional. In 2005, the NCAA took the word "intentional" out of the rules in hopes of reducing these incidents even further. Beginning with the 2013 season, players who are flagged for such hits are automatically ejected from the game in addition to a 15-yard penalty, under the new "targeting" rule, subject to a replay review. If the ejection occurred in the second half, the player must also sit out the first half of his team's next scheduled game. This rule was revised in 2014 to overturn the yardage penalty in addition to the ejection if the player's hit is not flagrant. The rule was again revised in 2016 to allow replay officials to call penalties if they were missed by on-field officials and overturn incorrect penalties."

And then they call it and eject the A&M player. Does Bama really need the officials cheating for them? If I gave a öööö about this game, I might be mad.
