Make the call - Two or no?

If you watched the football game and followed what the announcers were saying, you would know that the Iowa fans booed when the Iowa team had been moving the ball downfield and then all of a sudden a PSU player would get "injured"-"take a knee". or whatever you wish to call it. Coincidence is not causation, but it became very "interesting" how often the injuries seemed to happen as Iowa moved the ball. That is what the fans were booing. Not the injuries. The seeming attempt to stop momentum by the PSU players. Even though the PSU Coach complained about the booing of his players in his Press conference after the game doesn't mean he was correct on the reaon.
And if the Iowa fans were really commenting negatively about the PSU injuries............they would have cheered, not booed.
They were booing the stoppage of play. The loss of momentum.
And then come out of the game for a play or two, then come right back in healed up again. They were using it as chances to catch a quick breather and slow momentum. Some do it in wrestling as well to get a "lunger". That is what they were booing. There was probably some that were actually hurt, but they had cried wolf too many times to know which was which at that point. Their coach was pissed about booing and actual injured player, forgetting about the 3 or 4 that were booed who were fine 2 minutes later.
Well, you finally got the other point in this thread. Let's hope you accept the correction on this one, too. Iowa fans weren't booing PSU injured players. They booed the ones faking injuries in attempt to stop Iowa's momentum.
look, someone needed to tell the ref what RBY was doing. Austin was the only one who really knew. Is that so difficult?
didnt know the rule and appreciated the answer. Did I need it -no- but nice to see the rule -yes.
You can’t twist an opponents joints to cause pain. And if it’s happening, the ref needs to know.
This. During ADS' previous injury in 2020, RBY deliberately forced the ankle or lower part of the leg out at an angle and obvious in the video. The intent may not have been to injure, but RBY went after the toe turn very deliberately with considerable force. IMO this is/was illegal. It may not have been malicious, but definitely intentional in order to get the cradle secured
I was pleased ADS & our coaches went to great lengths to make to official & PSU coaches aware "we smell a rat", as Ferentz said in regards to PSU's failure to get off the football field with minor or seemingly no injury last fall. We saw RBY at it again last Friday when he was twisting ankles. Desanto does need to work on finishing quicker and come up to his feet or RBY will do it again. That you can count on...
Similarly, I believe the bow & arrow used on Warner was dirty & possibly illegal. It was Jacob's wrapped knee, so felt to me like it was "coached". Cael may not be as animated as the Brands in public but he is not above quietly coaching dirty wrestling. I felt Starrochi may have been guilty of twisting Kemerer's knee on multiple occasions during last Friday's match. Perhaps the Hawks should utilize similar dirty tactics against PSU. The Hawks may want to consider fighting fire with fire when it comes to PSU, the b & a and twisting of joints. My two cents...

As a reminder below are links to the knee injury to Desanto back in 2020:
He may not want get all up in the referee's face but I have no problem with Austin reminding the official about what the ankle twists. It was clearly deliberate.

Well, obviously Ref Magoo didn’t see the foul. So maybe Austin thought he was vision impairedAs a reminder below are links to the knee injury to Desanto back in 2020:

Even Ferentz said Iowa fans smelled a rat. Someone should post Lavar Woods clip falling down on the sideline. It's just another example of the difference between the two fan bases. Iowa fans would run Ferentz out of town if he had players faking injuries. Psu fans embrace it. They have a long hisory of covering up the dirty that's rampant in their athletic department. Them hiring Franklin with his history shows they didn't learn or care about the other stuff that happened in their locker rooms.
That clip of Lavar Woods feigning injury on the sideline is hilarious! Award winner.
