Kurt Coleman was suspended for that "dirty" play against Illinois....how about suspending Taylor Mays for this one against Oregon State? This was worse....he could have broken the guys neck. There wasn't even a flag thrown by the officials!!

Yes it is....what is even crazier is the officials for the game were suspended for the "non-call", but there was no mention of suspending Taylor Mays. I guess the Pac-10 has very different way of handling things.

Apparently so. I do like that they at least suspended the official, but like you said there should be something in there for Mays too...

Wow, unbelievable that the Big Ten conference reviews this stuff and suspends players, but even on the obviously bad ones, the Pac Ten does nothing. How big of a deal would it have been if they suspended Mays for their upcoming game? :ohwell:
