On managing 2 QB's-"It is a non issue. They just want to win."

 

[Jameson McCausland]

That's all from Tom Herman.

Herman says he can not comment on the targeting penalty against Breckyn Hager. Says appealing is not an option.

However he did check to see if he could if I heard him correctly. In other words, he knows it was a bad call.

Herman comments on how there has been 2 defensive pass interference in the Longhorns favor when they are on offense out of 419 passes.

Correct. Sounds like the Big 12 office said the officials decision is final and Hager will have to sit out the first half against Tech.

Which just goes to show you how bad the Big XII refs are. They need to review the that stats if OPI can be reviewed, why not an obvious faskmask call?

I've watched that play several times and if no facemask and/or push in the back by the WV o-linemen, I don't think Hager hits the QB the way he did.

I think the Hager call was close enough to just accept and move on. It was freaking brutal and though slomo changes things he seemed to put his head back down before delivering a blow that looked like it may have killed the kid. If that was Sam we’d be apoplectic. Let’s just hope he comes in angry next week puts his hat (cleanly) on the Tech QB a few times.

That's absurd.
