Game Thread: Fiesta Bowl: #8 Notre Dame vs. #7 Ohio State ESPN 1pm EST

He is playing football. A contact sport. Ejection for a hit in the chest is BS

and i think you're full of crap. had it been the other way around you'd still be celebrating.

He's gonna be fine. lol

He'll get his money that's due him as a rookie.

Exactly unless he has a Torn ACL/MCL, I would fully expect him to be selected early first round

If he tore something he just lost millions and millions of dollars...for nothing.

You were wrong.

Lets hope he isn't hurt.

You don't know where he's gonna go. Stop it.

You really think he's not gonna get a nice payday in the NFL being a rookie?

I'm just concerned with losing him for the Fiesta Bowl. His NFL draft status has no bearing and he'll be fine.

Are you drunk? U don't know the rookie pay scale. Go look it up. He was a clear Top 10 pick and now with a lets say a torn ACL or MCL he will drop and will lose money. thats a fact. Now if nothing is torn he will be ok.

Not really and calling it on an interception is possibly game changing, yet they don't call it a lot of other times when it happens

are we really feeling sorry for a guy that may make only $10M his first year instead of $15M?

If not targeting it was at least spearing. That's been against the rules for decades.

Right, but spearing doesn't come with an ejection. Nor should that. I'm fine with an ejection on the blatant head-to-head hits, and have defended it, but to get tossed for hitting a guy square in the middle of the chest is fairly ridiculous. I know he led with the crown of his helmet, but I don't recall seeing that called as targeting unless it was also a high hit.

I was admittedly still annoyed they didn't review that catch at the start of the drive, fueling my initial response (also, it seems like Bosa gets called for targeting damn near every game, usually to have it overturned). I thought it was a great snag live, but on review, the ground clearly helped him control the ball.

Up 14-0 after 1 quarter, but Bosa being ejected has really taken the wind out of my sails.

 

[purguy12]

Kelly can't wait until he can fire VG. This game might be over. ND needs to wake up.

 

[Smotis]

Targeting is a dumb fuck penalty that should only be called when it is blatant. They don't even take in any of the factors that led to the hit, they just go "well did the helmets touch?" Dumb fuck rule.

same with me about J.Smith. 2 best players are out of this game. Sucks

But, Notre Dame has a really tough SOS.

They beat an 8-6 team, that lost its bowl game.
They beat an 8-5 team, that lost its bowl game.
They beat a 10-4 team, that lost its bowl game.
They beat six teams that were a combined 21-51.

 

[purguy12]

J. Smith back up is now injury. Damn what is going on.

 

[podsox]

Stop it you are a moron. ND had a tough schedule and that is a fact.

 

[KingKoolKat75]

The Bush Push...lol

 

[podsox]

that 4th and 1 go for it shows how much respect they have for nd. none

 

[purguy12]

This ND team looks lost right now. I expect a much better 2nd half from them.

 

[fredmccallyRTR]

Nice d.

 

[podsox]

wow a defensive stand. need a drive badly here
