Careful about this. In NFHS rules at least, intent is NOT required for there to be illegal helmet contact. The rules were changed a few years back to specifically address this.

Now, this is an NCAA game and I am not sure if intent is required or not. Perhaps some of my striped friends working under NCAA rules can clear that up.
