What is all the hype about Mathieu. I watched the.replay of that "clothesline" incident over and over again. Even in slow motion. He DID NOT clothesline Kirkpatrick.

Look like he grabbed him by the shoulderpad to me. Dre falling didn't help though.

It wasn't as bad as most think. He had a bad fall. If nothing would have happened to Dre, people would just call it a stupid penalty and that's it.

There's no excuse for what HB7 did. None. He's lucky the refs didn't toss him.

There is no way the referees can toss a player for that. There is no difference between that play and the two late hit out of bounds on alabama. Both uncalled for, but only one was called...hmmmm

Also, all of the inbreds booing did not help the perception of the play. Watch it for yourself, he merely blocked his chest pad and he turned around. Bitchpatrick was flopping like a soccerpuss, which is why he hit his head.

Settle down Francis. Miles discussed it in his press conference. Agreed it was a hold, but it was a technique thats been taught, TM just misjudged. He's not in trouble! It wasn't a personal foul, its a hold.
