Targeting Guarantano

[FortSanders]

IMHO, Mizzou targeted Guarantano with a cheap shot to the head. The Mizzou player almost tore his helmet off on the first series of the game.

 

[Johnnyreb#VFL]

I think so too. Another crowd may say he had his arm up there to try and stop JG if he cocked back to throw

 

[deezvols]

Elbow to the neck as he went down.... that looked painful for sure

 

[Elhanan]

Yup. Pretty blatant imo.

Learn to beat the refs. We can’t expect any favorable calls.

 

[FortSanders]

They do not call targeting in the SEC. Even the NFL is more protective of its QBs.

 

[vol-un-tear]

Cheap shot there

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Nope

 

[vol-un-tear]

Nope

Watch that forearm after he was down jabbed in the back of his neck

 

[GAVol]

I don't know about targeting, but I think it could've been roughing the passer. I've seen it called for less.

Unless your helmet is crimson with a white 13 on the sides.

 

[MustafaRasta]

No. This is not the NFL

thankfully

 

[9296potsguy]

He is playing like he is still feeling it.

 

[jboyinmiss]

offensive line is so Jekyll and hyde

 

[kiddiedoc]

That forearm at the end should have been called.

That being said, the missed PI on third down was more egregious.

Dumbass refs...

KCs time has come. Hope he can bring some spark

 

[k-town_king]

That is targeting how they usually call it.

 

[FortSanders]

Guarantano is probably gone for the season.

KC got this.

 

[posivol]

any hit to the q.b.'s head is targeting

 

[Coug]

Is that what took JG out of the game? Does he have a concussion?

I don’t think we know yet

Those tiger bastards also took cheap shots on Calloway and Jennings

The SJ-side judge should have flagged him for UR. A push or forearm to the back or up on the shoulders I can see letting it go, but not a forearm to the chin/jaw area.
