Anthony Wheeler Ejection

Will Anthony have to sit out the first half of the Maryland game next year?

He seemed to play with a lot more physicality than did Malik.

I believe the rule is that you miss the entire next game and they punishment carries over from season to season.

He will sit out the first half of the Md. game. It was discussed during the post game on LHN.

Saw the play and replays - hard to argue the penalty. Agree the rule is first 1/2 of next game he sits - in this case opener next season.

But it is Maryland so no big deal right?

Man I did not see it that way at all. He led with his HANDS. That is not targeting. I am not even sure their helmets touched.

same here. i didn’t see helmet contact

Led with the hands, hit him in the chest. Crew in the booth should have overturned the call like they did for Navy in almost identical play. Coaches all over NCAA are wanting them to modify, clarify, or get rid of the targeting rule altogether. Way to often they miss this call either calling it when not warranted or worse, failing to call it when it obviously is warranted. That one was bad but doesn't raise my blood pressure like the call against Brecklin Hager earlier in the season against West Virginia.

Here it is again. Production crew must have only had two working cameras all night.

And here's Hager's bogus call....

There was NO helmet to helmet contact. It was a violent hit and I would argue not on a defenseless receiver. It was not above the shoulder pads either.
BS call by a bunch snowflake refs who were agitated with TH celebrating. Which I LOVED!
