B1G refs suck. No lies spotted.

Just like the dirty late hit on Turbo Richard that took him out of the game and probably longer that wasn’t even called.

So he was actually injured by a hip drop tackle, which is legal (and shouldnt be). The oline body slamming him out of bounds after didn't injure him (not his leg at least)

I think it’s lame to make it illegal but probably will be eventually.

Too many of those violations are just normal tackles, where it just happens with angle/momentum their hips land on the legs

It needs to be a call only made on review and called down. I don’t trust a ref on the field to be able to call it. But also it happens by accident in college most of the time, NFL players are legit good at how they tackle and would do it on purpose(not to injure, but it seriously is one of the best ways to stop someone) cause for the most part it has disappeared

They would do it to injure. Ask Ty Law.

Okay, that hit was late but that wasn’t what hurt him. It was the initial tackle where dude landed on his ankle. The second hit was just adding insult to injury.
