Exactly- in fact if it wasn’t for a bad non call, (obvious helmet to helmet targeting the officials did not call) ASU may have beaten Texas.

There were two non-calls in that game. On the interception, the Texas receiver Bond was clearly hit helmet to helmet AND the defender launched into him.

Both should have been called.

The NCAA targeting rule states that “no player shall target and make forcible contact against an opponent with the crown of their helmet.” It also says “no player shall target and make forcible contact to the head or neck area of a defenseless opponent with the helmet, forearm, hand, fist, elbow or shoulder"

There was not crown of helmet contact. The more aggreges non call was when the lineman carried Skattabo over the goal line.

In NCAA football, carrying a player to advance the ball is a foul called "helping the runner". This occurs when an offensive player physically assists the ball carrier in their forward progress by pulling, carrying, or lifting them. The penalty for helping the runner in NCAA football is five yards.

Yes they would have. Fifteen Yard penalty and a 1st down on the Texas 37, with over a minute remaining in the game.

How do you not make this call?

I'm a Penn State fan, so I have no dog in this fight, but I watched that game and it is impossible for me to believe that, on review, that was not called.

I can't predict the outcome of that game, but that should have been a 15 yard penalty, an ASU first down and probably a game changer.

Texas got a KC Chiefs ref's call.
