Crown of the helmet. Targeting.

The automatic ejection needs to go. That is, was, and will always be an insanely stupid rule.

Penalize him sure, but that wasn't ejection worthy.

I actually turned the game off after that call

That rule sucks donkey nuts and has been a detriment to the sport.

Pac 12 is target happy. They have been for several years.

I think the rule is BS, but by the definition of the rule, that was targeting

Yep. Should be two to get tossed.

That was targeting by the rule though

By the rule, it was targeting.

However, I agree, and the ejection for that penalty is ridiculous.

The call was correct. It is a pussy rule, but it is the rule.

It was definitely crown of the helmet though. This wasn't nearly as bad as when defenders launch and use their helmet.

Wanting to protect player safety and prohibit hits using the crown of the head is fine.

The automatic DQ (at least for the 1st offense) needs to go.

By the rule it’s targeting. Ohio State with Shawn Wade. Clemson 3.9 yyp. After 8.2 yyp.

It is what it is.
