🏈 Cheap shot or not? UT Kicker

[JoshB]

You would need a birth certificate to verify your own birth....you damn people are nuts. Funny how you make a feeble attempt to attack a couple of TN kids for this garbage...making vile references....What short memories some have.....we were the team that had our star Linebacker STRIKE a referee for NO REASON WHATSOEVER....Was that a reflection of our coach or staff ? :lance:

how the hell are u able to type, you know being blind and all? how is anyting 'attacking in kids' for 'this garbage'? first off, who is attacking any of them? second, what garbage? oh, you mean the VIDEO that shows the FACT that the Tennessee kid run halfway across the field to shove a Bama player at the end of the game? so im guessing you wanna say he thought that ONE guy had the ball, even tho he was runnin from the OPPOSITE direction, and also the fact that there was about 100 other people on the field at that time? And lol at that other comment, he 'struck' an official 'for no apparent reason' huh? He pushed a referee's arm away from him, man someone take him outside and shoot him. Damn near every post I see you post is something that is just flat out retarded and it seems your the only Alabama fan that likes to take shots AT bama than anything else. go somewhere else, PLEASE.

Wait, seriously?

Are you a UT fan?

Just wow.

This is unreal that someone thinks it's okay to hit our players after the game is over. I hope to God the SEC does see what Lincoln & his holder did after the game & suspend them so this smart one can argue that the SEC is out to get the Viles.

For those who can't (or won't) follow the ant pile that develops following the game, the kicker (at the :28 mark of the videos) runs and hits an Alabama player in the back. The Bama player gets back in his face, probably some words exchanged and they move on. The holder had to sprint from one side of the midfield paint to the numbers on the other side of the field to hit a Bama player in the back at the :29 mark. No attempt to tackle, no attempt to see if he has the ball, he just hits the player and attempts to melt into the crowd. The Bama player figures out what is going on about the time he's met by another Bama player celebrating and seems to forget about it.

From the video, neither of these incidents appear to involve any interaction between the players before the Bama players were struck from behind by the UT players. In my view, both kids were seeing red over losing a ball game and wanted to lash out at the first person they could catch. It's poor discipline on their part, but it's a stretch to paint any program by the hotheaded actions of a player, and equally a stretch to call those who have noted their actions conspiracy theorists. For those of you who played the game, you know how quickly emotions can ebb and flow.

As to a previous characterization of Rolando's penalty from earlier this year as "striking a referee", I can only say that the SEC reviewed it and determined it warranted no action beyond the flag that was thrown. Had anyone with the SEC even suspected the penalty involved the striking of a referee, they would have taken action.

It's best to use facts to support a position, rather than using inaccuracies to cover errors.

I think the kid was running around in a frantic state of shock thinking "OMG, he didn't block me again, did he? OMG where is the ball? Is the game over? What do I do? and he reacted, badly, as his thoughts continued racing - "OMG, how can I show up in class Monday? Oh, It's a long ride back to TN, Man, everyone is going to hate me and I definately ain't getting none any time soon.... Why me, Why me? Please give me some of that fine TN moonshine so I can forget this day... "
Seriously, I think he was just a confused, upset kid that didn't quite know how to react and he was't meaning to cheap shot anyone.
ROLL TIDE!

Southern Bama, I know what part of the video you're looking at and it's not right part. We're not talking in the seconds immediately after the kick when he's chasing down Cody, we're talking about after he realizes that Cody doesn't have the ball...starts heading to his own sideline...and clearly targets and rams a Bama player that stormed the field in celebration. Make sure when you watch the video that you follow the holder and make sure you pay attention at the 28 second mark.

Yea I saw it...I still wouldnt read too much into that. Our player was running str8 for their sideline...pretty excited...no legit reason to do that...that I can think of. Certainly not going to be well accepted by a losing team. Just looked like a push...shouldnt have done it..but they are kids and its in the heat of the moment...highly possible our player could have been yelling some stuff that wasnt well received. Alot worse happens after alot of whistles are blown...nothing to get all excited about and interpret as something more than it is or was. Maybe both of them learned from it and wont make the same decisions in the future.

This is really sad. But I can't say it's that surprising.
