We think we know targeting, but we don't know targeting.  I didn't see the call against Sinclair, because I was watching the Tech-Cuse (not) Super (but still a) Bowl (in play because Tech ain't beating UGA).  Tech's QB, Haynes King, was high-lowed with an obvious crown to helmet not called on the field. So, the booth initiated a targeting review. Announcers knew it was targeting, the crowd saw targeting on replay, the TV audience saw the reaction of the Syracuse player watching the obvious targeting on replay. He knew it was targeting. 'After further review, there is no targeting. The player is not ejected."  W.T.F? It was a critical play and the correct call would have made Tech's win less stressful than it was. The announcers hounded the ACC replay center for an explanation. Which was: "There was forceable contact to the head and neck, but no indication of targeting." Orwellian. I guess the officials have done a good job when fans on Tech sites want addresses to burn their houses down while Syracuse fans are complaining about the Southern cooking they've gotten since joining the ACC. Even the Cuse fans knew it was targeting.

So to all those who just can't wait to be rid of Pac12 officials (and I believe we are now officially rid of Pac12 officials), the ACC says: "Hold my beer."
