Michigan is willing iu to stay in this game...nm

I see the Michigan qb has been coached well. Gets up after every hit and starts making the targeting signal. He almost got one! Keep trying lil buddy!
Just left that game. IU has a nice stadium and it was about 85% full probably 10 to 15% were michigan. Honestly, the refs looked like they were in Mich pocket. PI on an interception that was utter and complete crap.
Well Michigan isn’t playing well at all. Suppose IU has a lot to do with it.
Haven’t seen very good coaching by Harbaugh at all!

But did IU provide a dehumidifier? Awfully muggy down there.
But more importantly - how are the visitor locker rooms?
Frankie, you are right on about UM qb. Just brutal. Was at the UM/IU game.
While the intent of the targeting rule is good, The way it's being called and interpreted is terribly flawed. O'Korn got flushed, starts running. The defender, in this case Scales, already running at him, dropping his hips, set to make hit. O'Korn sees this, takes a VERY LATE slide. Scales Gets a personal foul, luckily no targeting.
WTF do these refs and rules-makers expect a defender to do right there? He can't stop even if he didn't launch. And I don't think when they made the rule, they accounted for qb's or other ball carriers making it a strategy (as it has become) to just run toward the defender, then at the last second slide late, thus changing the angle of the hit, to get the personal foul and possibly the targeting.
I think most know what legit targeting looks like. It would be nice if the refs would Have some common sense when calling it.
Oh, and BNG013, yes, agreed. Terrible PI call on Fant too. UM DBs get away with more on EVERY play without being called than what happened there.

He did it ( the fist to the helmet) before that too. They replayed it on tv. If you were at the game you probably missed it.
Agree, it has become an offensive strategy by some programs. Michigan is one of them.
