After a concerning sequence in Saturday's Stanford-Cal game, slamdunk406 says the Pac-12 needs to discipline the game's officiating crew. He explains:

was also asking for a flag, confused of as to how his teammate was allowed to get completely blindsided and tackled after the play was clearly dead.

So, to quickly recap: A player was allowed to perform a blatant late hit on an opposing player that occurred well after the play was blown dead. No penalty. No ejection. Nothing. If you step back and think about it, that’s wild. I asked people in the press box in real time how that wasn’t a penalty and nobody knew. Upon reviewing the tape several times, I find it to be even more mind boggling that a flag wasn’t called.

Getting tackled is dangerous enough if you know a tackle is coming. But getting tackled/blindsided when a play is over has the potential to be really dangerous. Gilman could have gotten really hurt on that play, costing him next week’s game against BYU or maybe even spring ball/part of next season. If you think that’s an exaggeration, Stanford already lost a key player for the season due to a late hit whenwent down against Arizona State a few games back. Late hits have to be taken seriously.
