you are right you can trip a runner with youre tounge, arms and everything but your leg. You can not stick youre leg out to make a tackle. Hell even the NFL doesn't allow it. Are you telling me if a player was lying on the ground and stuck he leg or foot out to try and make a tackle, thats legal? Thats called a personal foul unsportsmanlike 15 yards.

### Well if he doesn't tell you yes, then I'm going to tell you yes.. A runner can be tripped and not be called a foul.
Yes, the NFL does not allow this kind of tackle. But Yes, the NCAA and NF do allow it.
Do not equate a leg being thrust out to trip with a kicking action by a player. You can tell the difference and kicking a player, any player is a foul.
