I would love to see a player who gets that stupid targeting call just stay in the field and make someone carry them off

 

[Decked]

Refs gifted them a touchdown 

 

[The Duke]

I say it every week for both Nebraska and our opponent; NO PLAYER should have to be ejected for targeting.

Give them a 15-yard unneccessary roughness penalty and move on with the game.

There's helmet-to-helmet contact like that on nearly every tackle.

Absolutely hate that rule, and that call.

Commentator before the game talks about liking cold, tough football weather.

Commentator during the game talks about football hits being "targeting" like a little wimp.

 

[Redux]

These officials, these commentators and PJ Fleck can all f*** off

 

[Archy1221]

All because Williams doesn’t know how to catch a ball.   Glad when we have a different safety 

 

[gossamorharpy]

Questionable call but could have been avoided if our f’n secondary can catch a GIFT of a interception.

No qb pressure, weak a$$ cushion coverage and when we do get a turnover chance of course we whiff 

 

[Mierin]

You know what you signed up for when you play football. Dumb. 

I don't think that play should be considered targeting but I don't agree with this either. An 18 year old isn't thinking about getting brain damage when they're 40. Teenagers don't really think of s#!t like that. There should be some responsibility put on others and not all of it put on 18 year olds.

 

[talaricohusker]

Mute! 

 

[ladyhawke]

Does this targeting rule need to be modified? That quarterback wasn’t defenseless and CTB was just trying to make a solid defensive play. 
This hurts. Cam is one of our best players

 

[desertshox]

f#&% b1g refs.

Disclaimer, just venting not blaming the refs.

 

[The Duke]

There's helmet-to-helmet contact like that on nearly every tackle.

Absolutely hate that rule, and that call.

I agree. Back in the 90's Nebraska would have been flagged for targeting on almost every single play.

 

[Archy1221]

The booth getting to watch these hits in slow motion make them so much worse than they are, and usually lead to poor decisions

This +10000

 

[lo country]

Need to score on this drive.....They start with the ball.  

Minnie TE 1st catch this season......
