Or just don't be that idiotic to be anywhere near the punter. Michigan State has no one to blame but themselves. Yeah, it was a lame end to the game, but you've gotta be smarter than that.

Imagine if the news from Pedo-bear Valley broke a couple weeks later and Joe's name was still on the inaugural trophy. That timing was a PR blessing in a way.

Yeah. If Paternos name would have still been on it, commentary would have been all scandal talk.

the whole "shouldn't have been near the punter" argument is preposterous.

that pussy kicker took a dive, was CLEARLY a bad call. Period.

Wisconsin did not deserve this win, it was handed to them. [censored] them.

He ran into him. There's no 2 ways about it. Even without the flop, that gets called every time.

Roughing or Running Into Kicker or Holder
ARTICLE 16. a. When it is obvious that a scrimmage kick will be made, no
opponent shall run into or rough the kicker or the holder of a place kick (A.R.
9-1-16-I, III and VI).
1. Roughing is a live-ball personal foul that endangers the kicker or holder.
2. Running into the kicker or holder is a live-ball foul that occurs when the
kicker or holder is displaced from his kicking or holding position but is
not roughed (A.R. 9-1-16-II). Note: Running into the kicker carries a
five-yard penalty.
3. Incidental contact with a kicker or holder is not a foul.
4. The kicker’s protection under this rule ends (a)when he has had a
reasonable time to regain his balance(A.R. 9-1-16-IV); or (b)when he
carries the ball outside the tackle box (Rule 2-34) before kicking.
5. When a defensive player’s contact against the kicker or holder is caused
by an opponent’s block (legal or illegal), there is no foul for running into
or roughing.
6. A player who makes contact with the kicker or holder after touching the
kick is not charged with running into or roughing the kicker.
7. When a player other than one who blocks a scrimmage kick runs into or
roughs the kicker or holder, it is a foul.
8. When in question whether the foul is running into or roughing, the foul
is roughing.
b. A kicker or holder simulating being roughed or run into by a defensive
player commits an unsportsmanlike act (A.R. 9-1-16-V).
PENALTY—15 yards from the previous spot [S27].

What did Tressel say about when the man with the funny pants and striped shirt throws the little yellow hankie...

Sometime minor contact with the punter isn't called, but that doesn't make it a bad call when it is.

The Sparty coaches made the bad call, this is on them.
