Anyone else OK with the hit on Tolliver?

I must admit when the Tech player launched himself and tried to decapitate Tolliver I was pissed. My knee jerk response was to holler at my TV set and scream for a flag. In part I was just tired of being manhandled by a team we should have been dominating in our own house. I was dissapointed in CM for not berating the officials. It was a relief when TT got up and even more satisfying to see him return to play. I believe one of the commentators said "maybe that will wake up this LSU team". I have to agree that I too hoped it would light a fire under our guys. The more I thought about it I felt as though if it had been Patrick Peterson laying out a Tech receiver I would have been applauding the hit. I expect we would have been flagged though. As passionate as Coach Dooley is I expect he would have raced onto the field and gotten in the refs face .

 

It was a blatant helmet to helmet contact, flag should've been called... but apparently the zebras have decided to let our oppenants play while we get flagged after each play. It was an embarrassment imo to let Tech handle us the way they did in our stadium, but we won... it's all irrelevant now.

 

Was that an SEC crew last night? o:

I'm ok with it cause 1. his arms hit Toliver's chest first. and 2. That is a gay ass rule anyway. A couple more years and we will be packing 92k in to watch a game of 2 hand touch.

 

they should take the replay of that hit and play it in classes that NCAA officials have to take, that was one of the most blatent spears i have ever seen, it was more like a torpedo.

 

Did anyone notice if the hit make the Sportscenter highlight reels?

 

He did exactly what every DB coach in america teaches them to do. It just so happens Toliver was 6 inches taller so he had to get up to dislodge the ball.

 

I pretty much agree.

 

TT was put in that position with the horrible throw that JL made. There was way too much hang time on that ball. Sometimes the QB's need to protect the receivers.
