In fairness, the tOSU player probably gets the benefit of the doubt there if his form isn’t so terrible. He looked like he was trying to demonstrate how Ryan Shazier nearly got paralyzed.Terrible, game/changing targeting call. There’s no way to make that tackle without helmet to helmet contact. Lawrence ducked.
He learned it by watching Dabo.Lawrence fakes an injury to draw a targeting penalty. Supposedly knocked out and comes back after one play throwing darts. God I hate Clemson.
I don't think he faked anything. He got absolutely LIT UP on that hit you're referring to.Lawrence fakes an injury to draw a targeting penalty. Supposedly knocked out and comes back after one play throwing darts. God I hate Clemson.
The first hit was good form. I thought the review was going to be for the 2nd guy in, Chase Young, for horse collar or facemasking. That was sort of piling on but not flaggable.In fairness, the tOSU player probably gets the benefit of the doubt there if his form isn’t so terrible.

But it’s far from the only bad tackle I’ve seen tonight.
How did he not go to concussion protocol??Lawrence fakes an injury to draw a targeting penalty. Supposedly knocked out and comes back after one play throwing darts. God I hate Clemson.
Excellent point about the concussion protocol.How did he not go to concussion protocol??
He was out on the field - or faked it.
But if that is targeting just tell all players to duck their head at time of tackle. Profit
Ok.Two things: 1. Where is Tee Higgins? 2. Give me a break with the ‘ref ball’ on the obvious targeting . The dude led with his helmet and first contact was with Lawrence’s helmet.
He was acting like he was struggling with consciousness. How he does not go into concussion protocol is mind boggling. But somehow he comes back after one play throwing darts. He was hit hard, but tried to sell that he was hurt to get the 4th down bailout on targeting.I don't think he faked anything. He got absolutely LIT UP on that hit you're referring to.

In the locker room looking for a helmet that fits.Two things: 1. Where is Tee Higgins?
Yeah, it’s one or the other to me. If you call that, then Lawrence needs to be in the protocol for as long as it takes.He was acting like he was struggling with consciousness. How he does not go into concussion protocol is mind boggling. But somehow he comes back after one play throwing darts. He was hit hard, but tried to sell that he was hurt to get the 4th down bailout on targeting.
The call was Dreith level bad and changed the game.

I didn’t like the call either. No argument from me on that.He was acting like he was struggling with consciousness. How he does not go into concussion protocol is mind boggling.

I'm with BaseballJones on this. He took a tremendous shot on the initial hit, and Chase cleaned it up pretty good. I think he was catching his breath and making sure all of his ribs were still in the right place.I didn’t like the call either. No argument from me on that.
But I thought he was laying there like “holy %#*! that hurt!” Which it sure looked like it did.
He got fucking nailed by two guys in succession.I'm with BaseballJones on this. He took a tremendous shot on the initial hit, and Chase cleaned it up pretty good. I think he was catching his breath and making sure all of his ribs were still in the right place.
All the wining in this game is being done by tOSU fan(s)Clemson is wining this game
If it were flipped with Fields getting that hit you’d be 100% on board? I doubt that.All the wining in this game is being done by tOSU fan(s)
who cares?If he got targeted - hit helmet to helmet - and was down on the field , even if was just for wind knocked out, concussion protocol has to kick in.
Hit in head. Laying on field. He needs to go into protocol. But nah, 1 player later all good.
Doesnt add up.
