On the Alabama vs aTm game. Every borderline call going Bama's way, including a helmet to helmet on Speedy Noil that wasn't even flagged. Bama is dominant enough already without getting favorable officiating too. It would drive me crazy if my team played in their division.

I hate em. I have always hated Bama.

They ruin the 2:30 time slot. Their advantages are taking a lot of the fun out of college football.

I hate those 17ers as much as anyone then again I hate them all but that wasn't a defenseless player. Same reason you don't helmet to helmet on running backs.

Gary's hard to understand most of the time with Saban's cock in his mouth. Attempting to explain away the no-call by saying, "it's a judgment call". I mean, yeah... Technically every penalty is a judgment call.

Defenseless player is in the name of the rule

Targeting and Initiating Contact to Head or Neck Area of a Defenseless Player (Rule 9-1-4)
No player shall target and initiate contact to the head or neck area of a defenseless opponent with the helmet, forearm, fist, elbow or shoulder. When in question, it is a foul. (Rule 2-27-14)

You apparently missed that during the game. Gary and Verne reviewed the rule and clarified that it does not have to be a defenseless player.

1. I just posted the rule
2. That's not what they said
3. They are your source?

1. You posted "a" rule, sure
2. That is actually what was said
3. Leading with the crown of the helmet is a foul, defenseless or not
4. Birmingham's explanation was that the official deemed the Bama player did not lead with the crown of the helmet when he obviously did
