[Husker] leading with helmet

[Lawson, Scott R.]

I could not agree more. Also, I would not be surprised if taking Martinez out was something Missouri planned, although we will never know for sure.

The bottom line is, if #12 gets suspended there had better be SEVERAL additional suspensions from games around the Big 12 Saturday, including players from Missouri.

NCAA Rule 9, Section 1, Article 3a states that no player shall initiate contact and target an opponent with the crown of his helmet. When in question, it is a 15-yard personal foul. 

As I read this, Osbourne was not guilty of violating this rule.  He was leading with his chest and the helmet came along for the ride.

The hit by MU on T-Mart's knee however was clearly a player leading with his helmet.
