CrimsonKat Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 dawson should have gotten the same exact punishment as brandon spikes did a few years ago when he tried to remove ealey's eye which was no punishment from the sec because the coach was going to suspend him for a half. the precedent has been set there and the same goes for the hit by dial. they have clearly set the precedent with the game suspensions, but the uniform he is wearing and the game they are about to play in however means no suspension.As I recall, this is the first year that I have saw the SEC really take an active role in player suspensions. I am sure I could cite you some examples from year's past of quarterbacks being leveled after an interception with no conference discipline but would be a waste of time. We can agree to disagree -- as I have stated, my position is that none of these kids should have been suspended from the bowl game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South FL Dawg Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) I am not in favor of a lot of officiating interfering with the game, but a hit to the head (or one that whiplashes the head and the brain in it) is a serious issue that goes beyond football - just read what medical science has to say. That said I believe in suspending the player who delivers such a hit. The eye gouging is another dirty play but frankly one has nothing to do with the other. My thought is that Slive doesn't want to hurt the conference's chances in the BCSCG and that's why Dial isn't suspended.The thing about letting the schools handle discipline internally is clearly Slive telling them to take care of the problem before it gets to him. But it's wishy-washy and just makes him look weak. Edited December 15, 2012 by South FL Dawg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. That's my whole point with this issue as well. When players and former players are taking their own lives or the lives of others on an increasingly regular basis and authorities in sports medicine are linking these tragedies to helmet to helmet collisions, I have no problem with what the NFL is doing or handing out suspensions at the college level. Some things are more important than football. But don't be wishy washy and unclear on what deserves punishment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolae Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I guess the SEC wanted to protect Georgia in the Capitol One Bowl too with Ogletree and Dawson avoiding suspensions.Well, firstly Tree should not have even been flagged for his hit, it was clean. However, him being flagged for that weak hit is even more reason that Dial should have been disciplined.As for Dawson, he was doing no such thing. He was just pointing at something and Dee was in a place he shouldn't have been. As usual for that worthless CB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's wishy-washy and just makes him look weak.It bothers me because it was so clearly a dirty, malicious hit on Murray with the intent to injure, not just block him. He was trying to hurt Murray, to end his career, not just keep him from making a tackle that Dial could see was already being made.Dial is a POS and hope he never gets another opportunity in life. I hope after this, the most important decision he makes in life is which refrigerator box will he sleep in tonight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolae Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Bottom line, Slive should have acted here, but he shouldn't have had the refs calling the entire game with a Bama slant in the first place. He is damaging the SEC with his game-fixing and it is going to start affecting popularity soon. Nobody likes to watch a fixed game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody outside of Georgia fans would say that there was an Alabama slant by the refs in that game. Learn to stop the run and you won't have to cry about the refs.

CrimsonKat Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 David Pollack just said no suspension warranted. Said those whining about it should go play another sport. That is football and what a defensive lineman is supposed to do when there is a pick. Pollack said Dial was leaning with the shoulder and the only reason there was helmet contact was because Murray ducked his head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carter Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I agree with the sentiment of suspend them all or suspend none of them. Can't pick and choose. That being said, Dial not being suspended doesn't bother me. Should have been a flag and nothing more. Folks wanting something bad to happen to Dial... shame on you. That's real classy.

And for the record, Dial did not hit a quarterback -- he hit a defensive player. The quarterback loses his skirt after a pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for the record, I certainly do not hope anything happens to Sheldon Dawson or any other football player. These are kids playing a rough sport and making split-second decisions.

I don't care what he said, loved him on the field, dislike him lots off of it. Jesse Palmer said it was clear violation of the rule and should have been flagged and suspended.

That's real classy.I agree with the first part. I would have been ok with no suspension if he had been flagged, but to let him get away with a malicious hit to the head scot-free is pathetic on Slime's part.As for the second part...oh well, like I said, I don't want him getting away scot-free. I am not really pulling for a career-ender, but something on the first play to sideline him for the game would be a nice karmic fit. Class didn't enter the equation. Had I been one of the guys on that field the other night, I guarantee he wouldn't have gotten off light.
