So you dont like more money for the conference, hence more money for ISU?
Let's stay alive and relevant as a conference first, then we can move up the pecking order.
If no Big 12 teams do well, then the aholes at ESPN/FOX/et. All have good reason to short change what we have to sell. We want our conference mates to do well when they are not playing ISU.
END OF ARGUMENT.

You probably should rethink this reasoning. You realize that the TV money that keeps the ISU AD afloat is basically based on how well the conference does. In the current college sports environment, hoping for your conference to do bad is really bizzare.
Lol, wut??? The Pac-12 had 4 teams that were 10-2, and Oregon State destroyed Florida.
Utah, Oregon, Washington and USC are all alot better than any Big 12 team not named TCU.
Come on…. Gonzo is a good poster here and not a typical hawk.
I personally don't care about money that's not my responsibility to worry about, the only thing I care about is ISU doing good. And it's my opinion that conference opponents winning championships makes that harder for ISU.
Which is why I said "if." The defender can hit a player in the chest or the middle of the back, but if it's with the crown of the helmet it's still targeting.
Forcible contact with the crown of the helmet is a higher "priority" than other factors like defenseless player or contact to the head/neck area.
Lol. Until he lets his colors show like above. He’s a troll like the rest of them.
Lol. Huge bowl game win. Your offense had one 42 yard drive and your fan base is going nuts over getting the 18th ranked QB in the portal. And Brain is your OC from here on out. Good luck with that.
The only thing bizarre here is thinking there is a scenario where the tv money dries up
Why are you on here? I've never been on a Hawk fan site.... but even if I had... it wouldn't be to talk about two teams I don't care about. Strange.
Well, a typical hawk fan wouldn't be able to figure out how the password rules work. So we don't have to worry about them here.
I am not a Herbstriet fan, but I think he is very fair when he calls Buckeye games. He actually comes across as more knowledgeable because he knows about their ins and outs. I think your point is valid in general, but I think he is fair (and I normally do not like him).

For one thing, one way a ball carrier can be defenseless is if he is "in the grasp of an opponent and [his] forward progress has been stopped." I would say that could have applied on that play. Also, as someone else noted, if the defender leads with the crown of the helmet, the head and neck area and defenseless player parts of the rule aren't absolutely necessary.
We have been able to beat every Big 12 team over the years no matter how well they have done in that year's or other year's championships. No one is invincible forever.
