if i was a player i would protest that ridiculous rule and refuse to leave the field

15 yards is fine. Ejecting players is dumb.

If it was some really obvious malicious, dirty hit sure, but not that

 

[bamafan4evr12]

So would they rather them take out his legs and break a knee or tear an ACL. That is just as dangerous IMO

Agreed 110% it needs to at least be modified so the player doesn't get kicked out...football is a dangerous sport and injuries happen...these stupid rules are ruining the game

Why don't the refs just hand the game to Iowa? Think of all the injuries it will prevent.

LOL at tOSU fans booing a call which was pretty obvious.

They booing bc he got ejected, not the penalty. No way in hell should he be ejected for that hot, especially since he was trying ro tackle a 6'6" 280 pound guy, if he would of kept running it would of never been called. This rule needs to go, fucking dumb. An ejection on that plays, INSANE!

Hate osu, but that call was horrible, let ppl play football!

You've clearly never watched an Iowa game.

They can call a penalty every time on that hit. But ejecting a guy for a hard hit, this isn't football. Let's switch to flag football then guys.

 

[Brasky]

Made a similar call on Jean Baptiste last week. It's because he's lowering his head and hitting with the crown of the helmet.

I hate the automatic ejection rule, I understand protecting the players but why cant it be the penalty and if it is a bad enough hit then can review to see if malicious enough for ejection.

 

[Demonjoe93]

I just think the ejection was idiotic; I don't mind the fifteen yard penalty.

 

[herky]

He could also tackle instead of going for the highlight hit. Either way, I don't agree with the ejection.

[Shanemansj13]

Wide open.

 

[Demonjoe93]

Yay!

 

[ForkEmBucky]

These guys could save themselves a lot of flags and tds by going back to real tackling.

But ejection?

 

[HammerDown]

It's still early but I think Ohio State still has a chance.

 

[HammerDown]

Me and my big mouth.

True, Roby is cocky as shit. But going for the legs/knees is just as worse IMO
