Ohio State defensive back Isaiah Pryor was ejected Saturday night for targeting after supposedly hitting a defenseless Penn State receiver.
The only problem is that Pryor actually tried to pull up and didn’t even hit the receiver:
Yes, when I think of ejecting someone for targeting this is exactly the play I imagine pic.twitter.com/s9BxgsgNAq

How do you eject a player for that, especially after a video review? Trust me, Ohio State is one of my least favorite teams in college football and even I will defend the Buckeyes on this one.
Here are some other questionable targeting calls from the weekend, including one of our own:

Terrible. I understand they are trying to protect players, but these calls are just awful.
Meanwhile, last week in the Pac-12, this was NOT called targeting:
