Amari Carter Hit Observation

[Dghustla]

To me watching it again. It looks like the WR had already lost control of the ball before the hit.

Still love the hit and love the way he plays. True enforcer.

How do u love it? Guy already dropped ball, he nails the guy in head. Those types of plays will lose you games, and he repeatedly makes them.

They hit shoulder to shoulder hence why their WR was out with a Shoulder injury!

In real time you don’t know that can’t take a chance.

It’s just instincts. We have the luxury of watching it in slow-mo.

Was a good play. He tried to use his shoulder but it happened too fast.

 

[chrisRMNU]

Happened right in front of me. The hit was as clean as possible, led with the shoulder into the chest and turned away. Yea the helmets hit but not the crown and the WR lowered his head. It certainly was not as much contact as last week when VT got theirs overturned on review.

With that being said, that WR was not the same after that hit. Yea Carter got ejected but dudes didn’t have that same energy over the middle afterwards.

Impossible to make that play in 2019.

Sometimes you just gotta take one for the team. He stopped a TD. Had no choice, did the best he could.

 

[SayWhat]

Love the aggression and that he saved our *** there. It wasn't dirty, but by the letter of the law it was targeting. Yes, he tried to turn the shoulder and the WR came down, but it happens fast so hits like that are inevitable.

 

[90scane]

I doubt that gets called in the NFL. He didn’t lead with his head and the majority of the contact was body to body.

 

[gatorsSUCK!]

Yet Jarren took the crown after the DL guy launched at him and no foul...the standards and how they pertain to us are normally so different. I liked Carter’s hit and thought it was clean. The WR dropped his head into the kill zone if anything. Don’t recall them running posts after that either

 

[Donsnaps]

Bro ST would have been ejected a lot with this crappy rule

And he took out one of their top receivers. Duboise was getting Ivey the business.

 

[Cane_Clyde]

Terrible call. He did everything you’re supposed to do. He led with his shoulder the best he could. It wasn’t malicious. It was a football play. On TV, the announcers basically said that he tried to make the hit the right way, but sometimes you just have to concede the touchdown, which is absolutely insane.

 

[Home Slice]

I would have more ****ed at Carter if he did NOT make that play. I think it was a bad call anyway, but wtf is he supposed to do there. Our S&C coach emphasizes playing fast. He was playing fast. We get on these guys for being soft. AC was playing tough. A shame it was a call. More of a shame that it was an ejection.

 

[CorniceCane]

Did they score the TD? On that play or even after it? He did his job. Just because it was violent doesn’t mean that it was illegal. I was right there too. Funny thing is it took the refs much longer to review the play where the UVA WR clearly stepped out of bounds while bobbling the ball than it did to confirm a targeting penalty that didn’t exist. There is such bias against UM for playing “too rough”. This is football! Not Patty Cake!

 

[QuattroCane]

He set the tone for the rest of the game. Someone else mentioned, I don't recall many, if any, crossing routes after that.

 

[L A M P]

I don't mind the play or the call. Football in 2019. Ejections are just part of the game now.

WR already dropped the ball before the hit...but I agree Carter did the best he could and I don't blame him for the flag/hit

Under the college rules, Halls hit was targetting.

But that VT hit last week should have been targeting as well.

I didn't have an issue with the officials for the Viriginia game. But the officials were terrible in the VT game. Like blatantly ******** Miami over on several calls.
