[QUOTE="YJMD, post: 825445, member: 1929"] Those are good pictures. FYI here's the rulebook: [URL]https://www.dfoa.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/2021-NCAA-FB-Rulebook.pdf[/URL] Clearly from the pictures he dipped his head and made forcible contact with an area above the top of the facemask. Here are the indicators from Note 1: I bolded the one that definitely applies since he dipped his head. This was textbook targeting. Not a dirty play by Riq but being emphasized for players to try and keep their heads up. I don't doubt he was trying to tackle with his shoulder. But that doesn't matter for the rules. Of note, there is a separate less strict rule for targeting against a defenseless player. Here the runner was clearly not defenseless. [/QUOTE]
