If KD is suspended, I believe Tech will win the appeal as both personal fouls were very harmless. If he is suspended for the first half, we will be fine. Driskel will able to show off his passing skills a little more than usual. I would love for us to play fast and chuck the ball around like the Dykes days even if it is just for 1 half.
Take the suspension and move on, winning an appeal may come back to haunt you, gives him a mini-bye. Playing 10 straight weeks is hard on everybody, more so for RB's.
I have heard anything of KD being suspended. I believe the suspension for the first half of the next game is for targeting not for unsportsmanlike conduct
Targeting with Crown of Helmet (Rule 9-1-3)/Targeting to Head/Neck
Area of a Defenseless player (Rule 9-1-4).
No change to the statements of the fouls.
Changes to the penalty statements in bold:
PENALTY—15 yards. For dead-ball fouls, 15 yards from the succeeding spot.
Automatic first down for fouls by Team B if not in conflict with other rules. For
fouls in the first half: Disqualification for the remainder of the game. For fouls
in the second half: Disqualification for the remainder of the game and the first
half of the next game. If the foul occurs in the second half of the last game of
the season, players with remaining eligibility shall serve the suspension
during the first game of the following season. The disqualification is subject to
review by Instant Replay.
For games in which Instant Replay is not used: If a player is disqualified in the
second half, the conference may appeal the suspension for the first half of the
next game to the national coordinator of football officials who would then
facilitate a video review
