Kansas linebacker with one of the dirtiest hits you will see yesterday

Yeah I saw that and thought same thing. Was he penalized on the play?

He should have been ejected.

That's as dirty as it gets

Didn’t even draw a flag. No clue how

Sanders is taking his SECOND step after releasing the ball when he is hit

Yeh not sure what crack that guy is smoking

In NCAA football, hitting a quarterback below the knees is considered a roughing the passer penalty, even if the defender is blocked into the quarterback. This rule is in place to prevent defenders from diving at the quarterback's legs, which can cause severe knee injuries.

Not if he’s a runner. Which he was at the time. Idiot.

Not only late but man he purely had intent to injure

---

It definitely should have been a roughing penalty, but I don’t think you can judge intent here.

The guy probably thought Sanders was a runner given the linemen downfield. His head was already down before Sanders throws the ball, so I don’t think he knew the ball had been released.

This whole generation of football players has been taught to tackle low, so you routinely see hits in this area on runners. This one just sticks out because Sanders was still looking to and got off a pass.

Was he a runner before, during, or after he THREW the ball? Which he is doing IN THAT GIF.

You don’t get qb protection when you are scrambling.

---

Yes you do

Any hit during or after a “passing posture” is a penalty. That tomahawk overhead thingy he did would be know as passing posture

Sorry but you are wrong. A scrambling qb basically becomes an RB.

Please show me that rule
