You have to be joking right? He didn't lead or initiate with the helmet so he gets to stay in the game, but there was 100% clear helmet to helmet contact.

Unless you aren’t human, the head is on the shoulders, and contact will always be made with momentum. The difference is the head can’t be the first to make contact.

What a huge call. Need him geez ha

There shouldn't be any starting DB in the game right now. Put a 3rd string wr at safety if you have to.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Yeesh… gonna have to call frat row for DBs

 

[Glitch]

Let's go D

 

[Orange.]

Second team D holds. Good confidence for those guys.

 

[TennSam]

I can hear the hump fans now.I’m sure they’re saying we got away with another one.

Correction gump fans,darn spell check.

 

[SpringBokVol]

hell of an effort by that WR. I think he got his foot down but was still short

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Stich is a UGA homer. Stfu

There’s a reason he always gets these types of games lol

Exactly. Which is why picking up the flag was the right call. But to say there was no helmet to helmet contact is being willfully blind.

Was his foot in on that play?

 

[rjd970]

Looks like he got the foot down in bounds to me but I’m not sure where he caught it in relation to the down marker

Slaughter is living up to his moniker the last 2 weeks. He’s been smacking fools

It's almost impossible to avoid helmet to helmet contact when going that low. It wasn't targeting.

I actually like the way replay has been reviewing these calls this year - they are using a lot of logic.

 

[sofflavol]

Sorry...we're on the same side. I just get sick of the constant nitpicking of our staff...even as we have one of the two best offenses in CFB...it gets freaking old.

I love the aggressiveness …I don’t want them to take the foot off the Pedal, I thought I’d prefer keeping trick plays in the bag for moments needed. But I also understand the point people are making give them something else to plan for. Go vols brother!

 

[BlackCreekVol]

His foot was in

 

[VOLSONLY]

I HATE the targeting rule

Not sure. Still think it’s a to

He needs to go up to the booth and b slip Stinch

Agreed. But when people say helmet to helmet, they generally refer to the helmet initiated the contact.

I think he got his foot down too. Hard to see for sure.

DJ U benched it looks like

That wasn't the point of the post. It wasn't targeting, but the OP said there was zero helmet to helmet contact. Just crazy how some people's bias literally affects their vision.
