I understand that a player's safety is becoming increasingly important in football, which, obviously is a good thing. With that being said, I have no idea what the targeting rule is in college. I suppose I'm jaded. As far as I can tell (from watching every Zips game since they instituted the rule), any time an Akron player makes any kind of hit that could be close to anything described above, they get flagged, and ejected. When it happens to an Akron player, not so much. As the hit happened, I turned to an Akron cameraman and said "that's targeting, and an ejection in Akron, I can't believe that's not even a flag here"...he responded, "they just threw the flag." I have heard multiple times, "the officials are erring on the side of caution when it comes to targeting." At the very least, they didn't do that. At some point and time of my life, I would like to ask Alvin what he thought of that call. I'll have a guess he can describe it with two letters from the alphabet.
