    Crack back block?

    That was a great football play.

    Brian Kelly and Brian Kelly approve this gif. "That's what that's what"

    Horseshit call
    image

    I don't get it I guess. The guy was coming after Ross. No helmet leading, no crack back, no blind side. Hit him square in the shoulders. The guy was leveled on a clean block.
    He positioned himself right in front of the guy and tilted his head to the right while leading with the left shoulder. Its all fucking bullshit anyways because of the change-of-direction nature of a broken play. Shit breaks down and people react.

    If this is a legit call then the officials are derelict in not calling Unnecessary Roughness on every single goddamn play August to January.

    You suck at this. Grow the hell up and learn the difference between a blindside block and a crack-back block. Here's the NFL definition of a blindside block that is used by NCAA officials because the NCAA was too stupid to copy/paste this shit into their rules: A player who receives a “blindside” block when the blocker is moving toward his own endline and approaches the opponent from behind or from the side. Chest was wrong. The fans don't know shit about the rules and we need Mike Pereira to explain this shit to you guys: http://www.foxsports.com/nfl/video/pereira-explaining-blind-side-blocks-100514?vid=338078787834

    Which part, exactly, do I suck at? Quoting the exact words used by the mic'd head referee on the field at the time he made the call? Or block quoting from an article defining "crackback" blocks, "defenseless" players, and "targeting?"

    My point, in this post and others, is that it was an utterly indefensible call. Nothing about Perkins's play satisfies the definitions of any of the terminology used by the ref who made the call on the field.

    That's a blindside block, not a crackback block.

    If the ref said crackback, fire his ass on the 50 yard line.

    We all know it's a bad call.

    Horseshit call

    It's obviously a legal block. The retardation involved with this suspension is amazing even by Pac12FS standards.
    The fact there's a ref looking right at it makes it even worse.
    You think that official can see through #79 to see the block?

    Good point. The umpire has a perfect look at that. Never should have been flagged, ejection and flag should have been overturned on review, Pac-12 fucking blows for failing to fix this fucking dreckfest.


    Abundance.

    Actually, I think we agree it is neither.

    How can a blindside block be called when the player prior to being blocked looks up at the guy moving in to block him, only to turn his attention back to the ball carrier before impact?

    If this is a true interpretation of the rule, doesn't every inside counter run now by this definition, contain a blindside block?
