You decide if the HIT was dirty. Slow motion at the end

There is absolutely no question whatsoever that Boyd led with his helmet. That is quintessential helmet to helmet contact on a completely defenseless receiver. He would have been fined and potentially suspended in the NFL.

frick yeah it was dirty.

Dirty. Went for the head + helmet to helmet contact.

Facemask to helmet, it was a clean hit. It looked terrible but it was a clean hit.

I would not have called this a flaggable hit last year. But seeing the way they have called other hits like this this year, I definitely was expecting the flag when I saw it, even at full game speed

Its pretty sad that this is even in question.
ITS FOOTBALL! FOOTBALL IS A VIOLENT SPORT.
"defensless receiever" ???? What is the defensive players suppose to do. Wait until TT catches it and comes down and then ask him if he is ready to get hit?
Sheeesh, good thing these pussy rules werent in place 30 years ago or the hall of fame would be vacant about 50 spots. They wear helmets for a reason and the defensive player was clearly not using his as a weapon. Sigh....get them pink jerseys and flags if this was/is a big deal imo.

When I saw it live, I thought it was helmet to helmet. The replay shows that Boyd led with his forearms and the helmet to helmet was incidental. Clean hit. (and a very good one).

WHO CARES, YOUR TEAM SUCKS

I don't think it was so much helmet to helmet, as it was going for the head of a defenseless receiver. Whether or not he led with the helmet (which is debatable)... imo, there is no debating that he went for the receivers head.

Rules Changes 1. Player Safety. Helmet Crown and Defenseless Players (Rule 9-1-3). The committee has refined the rules regarding the use of the helmet as a weapon and the targeting of defenseless players. (The Points of Emphasis section of the NCAA Football Rules and Interpretations lists a number of examples of defenseless players.) Emphasis on these actions highlights concern about potentially debilitating injuries. It is now a foul when a player targets an opponent and initiates contact with the crown (top) of the helmet. This rule is intended primarily for the safety of the player who initiates the contact. It is also a foul if a player targets a defenseless opponent and initiates contact above the shoulders. Each of these is a personal foul and thus carries a 15-yard penalty.
2009 rule book (points of emphasis):
quote:
Intentional helmet-to-helmet contact is never legal, nor is any other blow directed toward an opponent’s head. Flagrant offenders shall be disqualified.
Specific examples of "Defenseless"
quote:
PROTECTION OF DEFENSELESS PLAYERS—In 2008, the committee
introduced a separate rule prohibiting initiating contact with and targeting a
defenseless opponent (Rule 9-1-3).
The following are situations in which defenseless players are susceptible to
serious injury:
• The quarterback moving down the line of scrimmage who has handed or
pitched the ball to a teammate, and then makes no attempt to participate
further in the play;
• The kicker who is in the act of kicking the ball, or who has not had a
reasonable length of time to regain his balance after the kick;
• The passer who is in the act of throwing the ball, or who has not had a
reasonable length of time to participate in the play again after releasing the
ball;
• The pass receiver whose concentration is on the ball;
• The pass receiver who has clearly relaxed when the pass is no longer
catchable;
• The kick receiver whose attention is on the downward flight of the ball;
• The kick receiver who has just touched the ball;
• The player who has relaxed once the ball has become dead; and
• The player who is obviously out of the play.

meh, doesnt look like he was trying to go h2h. actually looks like helmets touch but he was pushing him at same time.
After watching it few more times i do think that would get called most of the time. i wouldnt say it was a dirty cheap shot or anything like that.

Dirty? No.
Illegal...without question.
He'd be $30,000 lighter this week if he was playing in the NFL...

Do you, by any chance, work for the SEC?

The snap back of the receiver's head after the defender's HELMET hits it makes it obvious to anyone but an abject IDIOT that this was an illegal hit. Should have been a personal foul helmet-to-helmet.
Karma is a bitch. Defender better be watching his back. It played hell on the Auburn creep that tried to take out Dorsey.
