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?

Re: "obvious helmet to helmet targeting"

I disagree.

Face to face contact is not Targeting.

The receiver twirled directly into the face of the defensive back, who was in the process of making a completely legal tackle.

“How do you not make this call?”

Because, it’s the University of Texas Longhorns we’re talking about here. And let there be no doubt: the Texas Swagger, that larger-than-life bravado, commands respect.

This respect, mind you, is not merely asked for—it has been earned, forged in the crucible of competition and cold, hard cash.

The Longhorns, with their athletic program hauling in a staggering $280 million in revenue, stand tall and proud. Compare that to Arizona State, limping along with a meager $115 million. That, folks, is the difference between the majors and the minors.

And why wouldn’t the American people, lovers of spectacle and champions of greatness, rally behind the Longhorns? It’s not just football—it’s destiny. It’s the divine right of Texas to march forward into the playoffs, horns held high.

This is America! The land of unparalleled might, liberty ringing from sea to shining sea. We’ve got the Dallas Cowboys, Wayne Newton, and, yes, the Mighty Texas Longhorns—embodying the indomitable spirit of this great nation!
