You can tell it was intentional.

Well.....whatever it was...it shifted momentum. I would guess LSU took that personally.
Glad the Barn lost. Glad Dorsey isn't looking for a new career this morning.
Pitiful.

Yea, after watching it over and over. I can't say it was coached, but thats got to be the dirtest play I've seen in years.... I'm glad he's ok after seeing what happned to Tyrone Prothro I woundn't ever wish a player to have a carrer cut short.
Pro's play wasn't a chop block. This play was meant to hurt someone. The player should be removed for a week for that chop block.

I wouldn't be surprised if Muschamp gave the guy a doggie biscuit after that.

Saw the "LSU Karate Chop"?

I do agree that this was blatantly dirty though. As a former OL, you are coached NOT to do this. That type of play is meant to hurt someone.

It Takes Eleven said:It was clearly an illegal block, but honestly it's not even among the worst I've seen. It was a quick pass, and in real time Dorsey was just engaging the other lineman when he was cut. Had the low block occurred first it would have been entirely legal. Blocking below the waist is legal as long he hasn't been engaged first high by a second player (high/low), and you're in the free blocking zone.
On quick passes, it's a good practice to cut a lineman to occupy their hands to keep them from knocking down a pass. Any other time, if the defensive lineman crosses your face going to the ball, cut them. D-linemen don't like it, but it's entirely legal. If you cut a guy, he'll think twice about stunts, and he'll be more interested in keeping his hands on you to control you - that means less penetration and a slower path to the ball.
The media love fest with Dorsey is getting old. The sideline reporter's stretch-by-stretch reporting on his hamstring was high drama.

Outlaw said:A cut is a legal block without a doubt, and I did a fair share of cutting, but I don't even know if I would call that a cut block. I would call that a break-the-guy's-ankle-and-thus-cost-him-his-career block. And, being that GD is a sure first rounder, maybe a top 5 pick, and IMO it results in it being a very disgusting act.
