CFB 2022 Week 4: Rock Chalk

[The Social Chair]

Feeling a little nervous about USC winning tonight. Oregon State is a tough team on the road.

This is going poorly.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

This is going poorly.

Oregon State D is swarming

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

KState still giving Oklahoma all they can handle

 

[Ale Xander]

This is going poorly.

Dam

 

[Ale Xander]

I didn’t know Phil Collins was this huge in Norman

 

[Ale Xander]

I think we know why Vegas gave BC bettors the extra half point

 

[luckiestman]

I think we are going to be ranked baby! 3 tough ones for the Noles coming up though

 

[Ale Xander]

Nice decision.

 

[shawnrbu]

Gutsy.

 

[JCizzle]

Down goes Oklahoma?

 

[nolasoxfan]

This is the same K State that lost to Tulane (Wave!), which lost to Southern earlier today…right?

 

[dirtynine]

I don’t do much wagering but Vandy +40 has my attention. They’re not a complete doormat this year.

Bama 55, Vandy 3. Why I’ll continue to not do much wagering.

 

[Ale Xander]

Holy crap Martinez

 

[shawnrbu]

Adrian Martinez.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Martinez just absolutely destroyed OU all night. Love it.

 

[JCizzle]

Holy crap Martinez

Eviscerated the Oklahoma defense on 3&17 to win the game. Sad showing from Venable’s defense there!

 

[MuzzyField]

Great slide by Martinez! Burn clock!

 

[shawnrbu]

Martinez looked like Al Bundy tonight.

 

[canderson]

Say hello to Seven-Win Steve.

They’re not win in if 7. Maybe 5, my guess is 4.

Coaches don’t matter. They’ll never win more than 9 games in life. I’m 41 and can live to 95 and they’ll never be relevant again in that time.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Caleb is so damn elusive.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Except on that play

 

[The Social Chair]

Caleb stepped up when he had to. Good win.

 

[CFB_Rules]

How was that not targeting on the Noles. Now I get that my guy was trying to go low and the BC guy kind of slipped and fell in to it but I swear Ive seen that called targeting before. Can @CFB_Rules explain it?

Do you have an idea what time of game this play was?

 

[luckiestman]

Do you have an idea what time of game this play was?

Play starts with 9:07 left in second quarter

 

[Senator Donut]

WOW. Not sure I've ever seen a kick do that.

I had never seen it before this season, now I’ve seen it twice. Even more impressive to do with taller NFL-sized goalposts.

I actually think the color commentator did a really good job on this play walking through all of the elements of the rule and the considerations that replay was taking into account. I agree with his conclusion too; this is targeting with the crown of the helmet. It may have just been that replay didn't have that smoking gun shot of the crown of the helmet hitting the player (vs glancing off of him and being incidental contact). I looked through the angles and there is no 100% shot for me proving that the contact WASN'T glancing. But the player who got hit has his helmet come off, hard to explain that without direct contact.

Thanks for taking a look. I agree with what you said about color commentator and that it was targeting but officials on field said no targeting. Wonder what they would say.

The onfield officials rules that it WAS targeting, and replay took it off. But targeting is unlike every other foul for NCAA. Any normal play the replay booth must have indisputable video evidence in order to overturn the ruling on the field. Targeting is different, the default is always no targeting (onfield ruling irrelevant) and replay must have IVE in order to keep targeting. For whatever reason replay felt like it wasn't indisputably crown.
