There’s an uncalled targeting incident from the Fiesta Bowl that still irks me when I think about it.
There’s about 40 seconds left in the second quarter. It’s 2nd-and-10 from Ohio State’s 15 yard line. Notre Dame’s DeShone Kizer is flushed from the pocket, makes a move on a defender and heads to the corner of the end zone. He extends the football to try and score and, as he does, Vonn Bell launches himself in Kizer’s direction and lowers his head…right into the quarterback’s helmet.
TARGETING REVIEW
Today, the NCAA’s football rules committee will begin its three day conference to discuss, among other things, the controversial – but vitally important – targeting rule.
