I'll assume a) most are watching that game and b) the opinions are more objective here.

I say no way that's a legal hit. Yea, he was a defender on the play but you can't launch yourself and hit helmet to helmet for shits and giggles.

It's a personal foul, but it'd only be a 15 yard penalty and Bama ball. Don't think it changes much in the outcome.

Right, but still a horribly missed call.

Cbs talking about him missing ncg or bowl game so it is at least a penalty.

Nope.

Horrible no call, especially when you consider that it took place right in front of a ref who was looking directly at it
