Canes v Bethune-Cookman

[AmherstCane]

Nope.


One of the better things that's changing this season is that its not automatically Targeting if there is any helmet to helmet contact. Too many times we have to listen to announcers going on and on about "force-able" contact to the head or neck when in reality what we're seeing is incidental contact of the helmets.

We saw one of these overturned against TAMU last weekend on James Williams.

Bro leading with the crown of the helmet into the offensive players head is the literal definition of targeting. The BCU player put his head down and lead with his head into Colbie’s head.

Die on this hill if you want but your dead wrong.

Ayyyooooo they are averaging .7 yards a run and 4 yards pass at halftime

 

[Canesfan1899]

Doing what we are supposed to do and they look prepared. Time for the youngens to get some burn.

 

[Cajuncane]

Must have been hurting his soul to do. God this team is fun again

Might be trying to impress Jeremiah Smith there…

 

[flips]

we r really really really good. just need to get the 3 DL guys back for UNC. am worried about their big (pause) running backs if #55 is out there at DT

 

[301cane]

I know this is how we are supposed to handle business on teams like this but it still feels good to see us actually do it

 

[407cane]

now it's the emory williams show! no injuries to the first team unit

absolute win

 

[Unsider]

A very satisfying half. Miami Football…

 

[coffeecane]

So, most agee it was targeting. Clearly a helmet to helmet on the receivers head while he's trying to secure the ball. Yet, at the same time we dis the receiver for dropping the ball. I think it's a decent excuse not to hold on to the ball.

Nice finish to the half. TVD done.

First the helmet, then hit the ball. Just a good defensive play. Colby gets a pass from me.

Thought Mario might take it easy on an opposing coach who was on his former Oregon staff.

Lol, maybe they didn’t get along..

 

[Mikeiavelli]

414-36 in offensive yards in the first half omg

 

[3FW]

Orlando needs to prepare a lot more. He won’t be doing these games unless he puts in the work.

 

[Phydeaux]

 

[JustWin]

Gonna be funny when rivals say our run defense was bad first half.

 

[WestGA'Cane]

After the catch Colbie is immediately lowering his head in order to avoid the missile coming at his midsection. It's a bang-bang play, what's the defender supposed to do? He's not only hitting a moving target, but one that's rapidly lowering his frame. Good no-call.

last year we gave up 342 yards to bethune cookman and we had 586

this year at halftime, they have 36 and we've almost matched last year's total

way different vibe this year

 

[Rod Is Godly]

I just saw Mario Cristobal use all three of his timeouts while up by 27 against BCC, and then give his OC the command to march down the field in 30 seconds for a TD.

Holy **** what a time to be alive.

I could shed a tear man…. We begged for this day

Lol - It was overturned. Its not targeting.


The pic you posted showed two guys leading with their helmets. Not a defenseless player. Incidental helmet to helmet contact given that his helmet caused the fumble.

 

[3FW]

That was the definition of targeting. Not sure how he rationalized it was not.

 

[Confidence1000]

Aye Bro da Don looks real good (BIG PAUSE). He needs to get more Carrie’s. I know it’s against BC but it’s just how he looks doin it (Pause)
