    Everytime I watch that clip it looks more like a shove.

    I'm posting this here as a reply because I couldn't create a thread in Member Help. Just in the past 30 minutes whenever I reply to a post it first asks if I want to reply. When I click yes it then posts the quote but the box for my reply isn't there. I have to post the quote and then edit it with my reply. I have noticed in the last few weeks that there have been quite a few posts by others that only contained a quote and no reply.

    When I tried to create a thread in member help I was able to type a subject but the box for the text of a post wasn't there.

    @red55 @mctiger ya'll are the mods online right now. Any ideas? Could it be the xenforo software?

    I think it was a good no call. There was a facemark and Fournette throws a punch.

    On the Bama play, I don't even see a head slap. It looks to me like the UK rusher got his arm up, and Bama got him under the arm and just helped him own momentum along. I definitely don't see anything wrong with what L Train did; why shouldn't a ball carrier be allowed to fend off tacklers?

    You ever been punched with an open hand? You can even see the Florida defender's arm come flying off.

    He's trying to stop the gayterd from ripping his head off by yanking his face mask. Looks like he's trying more to knock his arm off than punch him, but it's a physical play at full speed. I don't see any gayterd fans complaining about the gayterd player dragging Fournette down the field by his facemask.

    It may not have been targeting but it was a helmet to helmet block. Maybe didn't warrant an ejection and suspension but should have been a 15 yard penalty.

    You think so? I'll have to watch it again, looked like he hit shoulder to me.
