Was one last week to ISU.

Reffing is dead.
Are you talking about the roughing the passer call? While I agree that wasn't a penalty, this was totally different. Howard was a runner when he got hit

Quarterback no longer playing football. Duggan got a stupid roughing called for him when the dude let up and happened to push the QB instead of tackling him when he barely got the ball off.

What the hell are the defensive players supposed to do? I would not necessarily be against going to flag football. It would be much safer and I think it could be just as exciting, but if they are going to play contact, play contact and quit with the touchy crap.

It's called unnecessary roughness, if they call guys for landing on Brady and Carr with their " full body weight" then that's a penalty.
But he was running the ball when he got hit. Totally different situation. And this isn't me defending those other stupid penalties.

Yeah that was a really weak call

There's just no way the ESPN Circle Jerk can defend the B1G West without sounding really stupid.

Same goes for the BTN.

It matters whether he's a runner or not? I'm not trying to be a smart-ass, I honesty don't know. It wasn't targeting but the defender drove him into the ground with the full force of his body weight.

Yeah when we hit Ewers he was still in the pocket. It was still a bs call but once a QB starts running they are treated the same as anyone else running the football

OK, so THAT was a penalty on K State. THAT is actually a bad hit. Maybe they should show them to officials to show the difference.
