What did I see? I saw B1 (Oklahoma player) behind A1 (Morgan player) and facing A1's back when their arms became entangled and A1 attempted to untangle his arm from B1's arm. Yes it looked bad but A1 was had a more advantagous position that B1. At best this could have been incidental contact that looked bad or a common foul that looked bad by B1.

Mark, I respect your opinions, but when you say "At best this could have been incidental contact" are you saying at best for the Morgan State player? This was clearly a take down with the intent to do harm which was unacceptable in any sport (other than wrestling, judo, karate I suppose). Your'e right though, it COULD have been called a common foul, but most would agree FLAGRANT was definitely the best way to go.
