When they said that White should have been flagged for targeting on Stidham and how the refs had a lot of no calls on LSU. I did . They seemed so butt hurt.

Should we keep the offensive line as is even if Weathersby and Malone get back healthy? I really like what I saw out this young group

I'm just trying to figure out why Neuheisel is still on this show.
Awful!

That would have been a terrible targeting call on that play. Plus White would have missed first half of Ole Miss game.

Keep the OLine as it is.

I do remember one play where White blitzed and blew up the QB. I thought he could have been called for targeting.

it wasn't targeting, but since we were getting flagged for it for just falling into the QB in Starkville, I'm happy we didn't get the flag. I thought it was coming.

Did he mention the bad intentional grounding call against Etling? I think the receiver just didn't go where Etling expected. I don't think we were throwing the ball away.

Sounds like a few of them might have placed a little wager on the game and were butt hurt.

That hit from White was textbook - basically hit the QB straight on with his chest and pulled right up - didn't drag him to the ground.

Perfect pressure, hit, and holdup.

bull shite. I saw that play and was not drinking. what the hell is a rusher supposed to do? he was right of the QB damn near standing up; if he lowers his head it's targeting but he just kept going and their facemasks touched. I believe in protecting players but this targeting thing is starting to become arbitrary with some refs. some are obvious of course but but there are definitely times where rushers can't avoid a helmet "kiss". as long as the rushers head is up and it's not a late hit it should not be targeting. these damn announcers are pathetic at times.

I heard that and it was ridiculous. Had White dropped his head and led with his helmet it would have been targeting.

But then again, if our eyes saw the world differently, maybe we would perceive the daytime sky as pink.

White went in straight up, chest to chest. There is nothing illegal at all in that play.

White is a player. I have noticed him pull off of hits that would have been borderline in several games. I am sure that this does not go unnoticed by officials. They know he is not a dirty player and plays clean and smart. This style earns him the benefit of the doubt on borderline plays.

O-line was better, but wasn't great. Our tackles need to improve, I think Weatherbsy and/or Malone gets back in the lineup when ready/healthy. Etling was hurried on nearly 1/3 of his dropbacks and we couldn't run between the tackles (2.6 YPC between the tackles isn't getting it done).

It wasn't targeting and the routine plays that should be targeting aren't called. They tend to only call it when a play is impressive looking.

With that said, the coaches need to pound it in White's head to be careful of tackling guys high because we have seen refs call it on some questionable ones and if there is one guy we can't lose in any game, it's White. Just go a little lower to be safe. They're going down either way.

White hit Stidham with this chest. I'm not even sure if there was incidental head-to-head contact.
