Every game has one and that one is the worst of all of them

Unbelievable. ..that was a total overuse of the rule...while I agree he hit with hit helmet it's ducking football... he was nowhere near high and it qb doesn't take a step his helmet is to the side and no flag...this is ridiculous

Don't have a dog in the race, but Bosa broke every rule of tackling, especially when he dropped his head to use the crown. Head up back straight, and see what youre hitting. Bad break for OSU.

It wasn't a bad call. Its the rule. Is the rule over-reactionary and need to be revamped? Yes. But the call was right.

It's a fucking terrible rule, a kid shouldn't be ejected after one targeting penalty with how fast the game is played...I hate OSU but the rule is a fucking joke

By rule its targeting. I hate it too, but blame the rule not the ref

he tackled incorrectly by using the crown of his helmet and what they are trying to get kids not to do.

1) it's usually worse on the player getting tackled and can cause worse injuries (not so much here....the player got tackled in the chest)
2) it's bad for players to tackle with the crown as it can cause injuries to the head/neck to the player doing the tackling

football has a big problem with head/neck injuries and concussions. they are trying to prove they are doing something to stem these injuries by instituting these rules, even if in some cases they go beyond what really makes sense.
