Did you see that non-call?

Aaron Murray was intercepted, had taken several steps off the field and an Alabama player smashed him helmet-to-helmet. Not called, and the official was looking right at the play.

Makes one wonder about that Slive call ....

If Murray was paying attention, it wouldn't have looked as bad.

It might have been a bit dirty but it's a block at that point. Better duck and cover.

But the point is, it was well after the interception. Murray was walking off the field. He shouldn't have been hit at all.

On a lighter note ... did you see his eyes when he saw what was coming? They 'bout popped out of his head. Rewind at the half and see.

It was before the whistle and a few steps ahead of the return guy, right?


If that guy laid out a WR or RB lolly gagging around near the tackle, he would have been praised. Did I miss the whistle? I could have...

Not when the guy is 25 yards away from where the tackle occurred. He clearly targeted the QB. It's a chickenshit play.

You can't hit the QB in the head. Whistle or no,

this was very flagrant. Especially after he has thrown the ball.

The ref will get his payoff, tax free.

Hard to tell. Just watched it again, and it was only on the replay. But it looked like it was after the tackle if they had the two cameras in real time.

There's definitely helmet contact

I just don't know how a guy that appears to be a foot taller and 100 pounds heavier than somebody else can go about hitting him without it looking violent.

Well let's see if Slive sits that jerk for the next game. If he doesn't, then that confirms what we all believe.

You pussies. He's not the qb anymore at that point. He's a defender. Remember cam Lawrence getting cleaned out a few games back....same thing.

Regardless, it was helmet-to-helmet. That's a penalty ...

and there's precedence for a suspension.
