The Minnesota call was a hugh hollins level bad call
but what I haven’t seen discussed is..
how do you square that with the physicality of northwestern with the ball in the air the previous week?
is it “hey there are no rules, if the ball is in the air may the best man win”
or is it “contact? We can’t have contact in football!!”
I can get up with brohm and shepherd having to tell bell and weight “they’re gonna let them beat the hell out of you so you might as well get used to it.” Phil Jackson style
I can’t then get up with that call the following week.
all you old school guys who say “gotta be more physical than that and win the fight” am I wrong?
