fine line and something that is referee job to interpret. It would of all been easy if the lineman across from him would of just moved and made contact with the defensive offender.You can move out of a 2 pt stance. You can reset legally. If he stood straight up and pointed, not a presnap penalty. If moved as if he would to a snap, then it should’ve been offsides if the defensive player jumping is determined to cause it.
I think now there is so much standing to look back at the sideline, shifting, pointing out protections and blitzers that officials are locked in players making snap movements.fine line and something that is referee job to interpret.

No. It’s two half’s. The half you are in and then the next one. He’s good to go.I haven't seen this mentioned but does Young have to sit part of the bowl game as well? That would really blow if so.
Yes, but all of that had been done, then he reset. It was obvious that he reacted to the movement into the neutral zone. I know I'm splitting hairs, just wanted the call....!I think now there is so much standing to look back at the sideline, shifting, pointing out protections and blitzers that officials are locked in players making snap movements.
Is that so? HHm, well that is surprising! And you are saying they didn't call it?Campbell got away with his outburst on the offsides no-call for one reason - he was right and the most of the rest of the crew knew it when he was pointing at the line judge and yelling "do your job". Coaches can push it to the limit in these situations compared to when a coach tells an official that either he or his call sucks.
It took the line judge almost the entire game to finally stop ignoring that OU's DE lined up in the neutral zone on multiple snaps without drawing a flag.
Watching the replay the announcers did not agree with you and neither do I. That is the problem. Too subjective. Either way, as a defender you should be able to make a tackle. I am not sure that it was avoidable. By Isheem. How do you stop a guy leading with his head?Literally anyone who watches college football can say this play was targeting by the way the rule is written. If you think it wasn’t take off your cardinal and gold tinted glasses. Isheem didn’t get screwed by the refs, he got screwed by the rule.
and yes, this kids head did have that forcible snap motion.

did he have time to protect himself or clearly became a ball carrier (established himself as a runner)? If not then yes defenseless according to the rule book.
Agreed - its one thing to tear into the refs, it's another lose control of your emotions. Losing control of your emotions negatively impacts your decision making.

So, let's hear your "getting crazy" story. Sounds like you might have some experience here.
I think Sean McDonough said it best on the broadcast - that is was definitely targeting by definition of the rule. And that the rule needs changed.
I get what they are doing but to kick someone out for a bang-bang non-malicious hit while letting someone rip Purdy’s face mask off his helmet is BS “player safety”.
No crazy story, but I know I've certainly said things i didn't mean when I got mad at people. Things that were only meant to hurt. And it didn't do anything to make me feel better or fix the situation.
Seems reasonable that if you're that mad at anyone, your rationality will go right out the window. Playcalling suffers, player execution suffers because the kids are distracted by what the coach is doing...
Purdy was playing pretty fired up after that with his keeper. You could tell he was pissed. You get a trade off. I have no problem with Campbell occasionally letting loose when it’s deserved, as long as he doesn’t become a Bob Huggins (which he won’t).No crazy story, but I know I've certainly said things i didn't mean when I got mad at people.

No it happened in the fist half he is good to go.By the way, does the targeting call mean Isheem Young is ineligible to play at the start of the Fiesta Bowl?
This...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.
Purdy doesn,t snap the ball. Center does. When you set up that play, coaches HAVE to remind center to hike the ball.The frustrating thing for me was why didn’t Purdy snap the ball once they jumped offsides? Get a free play or worst case 5 yards.
Bumping heads??Guys, both that call and the offensesides were correct. This isn’t HS, the player has to be across during the snap, make contact, or cause a lineman to move. The lineman across from the second one should have slapped him on the head and gotten the call.
