Re: Dru Samia
He's such a dirtbag - I'm just glad he has to live with the fact that in his best two years of college football his team made the playoffs but lost to an SEC team.
Re: Dru Samia
So, I fully understand why you all would be frustrated with the non-call, but to me it is a wash with Q going high on Kyler and then landing on his head the way he did. I realize the size difference between the two contributed to how that looked, but the entirety of it - not just the initial hit struck me as roughing the passer.

Re: Dru Samia
Going high on Kyler.????? He’s like 5’2.
Q is 6’5.
Plus he’s elusive l, grab what you can.

Re: Dru Samia
Guess he expected Q to go to his knees before tackling him. In the football world, KM is child sized.
Re: Dru Samia
How they didn't call that is beyond belief. I'm not one who wants extra penalties, and I hate targeting, but that was a clear penalty that didn't get called.
Re: Dru Samia
QW is about 8" taller than KM - how does he get into the chest area without hitting him with the crown of his helmet? KM is a midget, not much you can do there.
Re: Dru Samia
Keep in mind, in the Big 12 they don't hit one another. They ask for the opposing player's permission to gently lower them to the ground before tackling. That is, when they attempt to tackle at all.

Looks dirty to me......should have been called......

Re: Dru Samia
The only way Williams could have hit Murray any lower would been to drop down to his knees and “crawl” after Murray. Now Williams is good, but he ain’t that good.
Go back and look. Williams left arm wraps around Murray’s chest under his right arm, his right arm goes over Murray’s left shoulder in a “wrap up” fashion at impact. William’s helmet passes to the right of Murray’s helmet....not face mask to face mask, not with the crown of the helmet. As the same time Murray is “falling back” getting rid of the football, lowering his body even more. If Williams right arm would have gone under Murray’s left arm it would have been a perfect form tackle.

You are totally wrong, even through the wrong-colored crimson glasses. Q carefully placed his head to the left, over KM's right shoulder - not even remotely head-on. That's why the whistle didn't blow. Sure there was side-glancing contact. KM's a midget, and the refs took that into account. Go back and review that play again before you post again...
Re: Dru Samia
The Refs were not anything to write home about, but they are something to notify the governing body over the Refs about... Terrible NO CALL.
No it means the Refs refused to flag Oklahoma on a obvious penalty.

Re: Dru Samia
Q grabbed him around the shoulders, did not lead with his helmet or launch. How do you expect him to tackle him???????
