HE DESERVED THAT PERSONAL FOUL. IT WAS ACTUALLY 3 PERSONAL FOULS IN 1. 1- Troy Smith was pretty much out of bounds with nowhere else to go when he got hit. 2- it was a helmet to helmet hit and 3- Smith had clearly thrown the ball when he got hit.
What a costly penalty, and too bad it prolly ultimately decided the game. The pass ended up being incomplete. Mich woulda had the ball down 4 points. At least the game lived up to the hype. I hope there's a rematch for the Nat title.

1) You say he was pretty much out of bounds, which is like being pretty much pregnant. You either are or you aren't and he wasn't. Futhermore earlier in the game he faked going out of bounds and changed his mind and took more steps. How would one know?
2) WHen he launched himself at Smith the guy was still moving and its real hard to say he timed the launch and Smiths actions to make the contact. If hes standing still yeah, on the run like that? No.
3) Smith had NOT thrown teh ball when the guy launched himself, whats he supposed to do stop himself in mid air?
It was bull****.
