That Clemson kid is damn lucky tonight that targeting and losing the football game was the worst thing that happened to him. His technique on that tackle attempt was one of the worst you'll ever see. Head down, eyes down, leading with the crown of his helmet, full force into a player. That was exactly the type of tackle technique that was used by former Buckeye and Pittsburgh Steelers player Ryan Shazier when his life forever changed. It's a recipe for getting paralyzed.

Extremely disappointed in Fowler and Herbstreit, who've called hundreds of games, not pointing this out considering the audience where thousands of young football players were watching.

Never tackle like that.. EVER!
