Campbell on Hot Mic
- Thread starter JM4CY
- Start date
the only issue I have with the offsides non-call is Soehner was literally jumping around on one of the Sooner jumps so it was either offsides or false start. Last time I checked you can’t do that.
edit: I just rewatched, it was Kolar
He jumps and points from the other side of the formation. That should be a flag. Pointing is fine...the linemen do it all the time...jumping out of a set stance should have fulfilled a false start with the opponent in the neutral zone.
May have to go and check it out. I believe you, but just curious myself since I didn’t look there. That should have been flagged then.
Kolar received the same type of hit in the first half. He fell into a shoulder pad to the face. No flag. ISU missed a FG on that drive.
The target call was debatable, and the offsides call is made in many games I've watched. Even if CMC thought the calls met the strict interpretation of the rule, I thought he was letting the refs know--"Don't call this game in Oklahoma's favor because they are just playing little 'ole Iowa State.'. Good coaches work the officials and make sure things are not going to go one sided. It was a big game obviously, and CMC was not going to tolerate it. Johnny Orr was the master at this.
Right. Now does anyone have the audio during the commercial with hot mic and him mf’ing the hell out of that ref?
Writing the words "forcible contact" into the rule really doesn't make much sense to me.
This is football. If every contact isn't forcible contact, you're doing it wrong.
I'm cool with Campbell going nuts. But I think you are interpreting his intentions a bit more the way you want it to be.
I don't think there was any method behind it. He was pissed and he got mad. He doesn't do that and I think he doesn't want to do that. We've seen him lose his **** one other time (against Kansas State in 2017). I bet it will be another 4 years before we see it again.
I can't believe no Iowa State fan in that stadium has video of it.
Looks like our left guard moved with Purdy. Oh well, maybe our linemen will learn a lesson from this.
What the clip doesn’t hit on is that undoubtedly part of his frustration that was coming through was directly impacted by the ejection earlier, IMO
Correct, which is why the rule is dumb as ****. Stoops just went down, no fault of his, but Young is going into what would’ve been a good tackle had he not.
The thing that drives me absolutely nuts is a receiver catches a ball ducks his head as contact comes and turns what would’ve been a textbook tackle into targeting. In those cases the receiver should absolutely be penalized. If you really want to change dangerous behavior eject receivers for that.
But I’m not sure it’s about safety, or about appealing to dumb fans that think a glorified 7 on 7 competition with an 84 point over under is good football.
