Remember when Devin White got ejected for NOT head hunting?

A fricking joke. I'm over the DW ejection. DW40 wouldn't have helped us beat Bama that next game but you're telling me those two hits both deserve the same penalty?

SEC office definitely phoned in that targeting on White.

"Oh, LSU plays Bama next week? Best LSU defensive player would miss the first half?....make something up on why that's targeting, thanks"

I’m ok with a penalty, but an ejection should be reserved for an intentional action. Like running into or roughing the kicker are separated.

Ball carriers lead with the crown of the helmet all the time...never seen them called for it

Or the spearing hit that knocked Jefferson out of that game (and the next one). Directly in front of the ref.

Youtube

I mean, if even Gary says there should probably be a penalty on Bama...

Yep. And they stiff arm and grab the defenders face mask all the time, too. Never called.

Rule interpretation from ref to ref is what aggravates most. Consistency

Like this tackle from Delpit. Zero Intent, just a shitty subjective rule

true, but they aren't aiming for the head or neck of a defender. It's still dangerous for the ball carrier, but there's a difference in intent.

By comparison, defenders are "targeting" (aiming for) a specific person and can control (in most cases) where they hit the offensive player they're going after.

That's why defenders get hit with the penalty.

This is a huge double-standard in favor of the offense that is patently unfair.

What’s funny is there is literally zero debate whether that was a college interception. He clearly had possession of the ball and one foot down. The debate is whether he got the second foot down for a nfl interception which he did. frick this crimson figs and the fricking cheating arse refs bailing them out.

A defender making a tackle is not a defenseless player.
