Clemson linebacker James Skalski was ejected for targeting after a hit against Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields in the second quarter of the Sugar Bowl on Friday:
Skalski was also ejected for targeting during last year's College Football Playoff National Championship, when Clemson lost 42-25 to LSU.
Fields stayed down on the field in pain and missed one play before returning and immediately throwing a nine-yard touchdown pass to wideout Chris Olave to give OSU a 27-14 edge.
Dean Blandino, the formerNFL Vice President of Officiating and current Fox Sports rules analyst, offered his take on the call:
Dean Blandino @DeanBlandinoThis is a foul at every level of football including NFL.
