Burfict and the phantom roughing

22 personal fouls in 37 college football games. Just think about that?

Burfict, like it or not...is at the extreme of the personal foul issue. You may be able to find a player with a dirtier personal foul here and there...but you aren't going to find many players with the volume of personal fouls.

I think the maddening thing with the NFL is that guys like Mike Mitchell go helmet to helmet and occasionally don't get called. One thing to keep in mind is officials see things real-time. They don't have the benefit of slow motion replays and seeing a play over and over like fans do on TV.

It's a concerted effort by a group of guys who have been instructed to get rid of the player.  It's not some innocent human nature.  Stop acting like it is. 

And you keep harping ad nauseam on the college career, which is completely irrelevant.  The only relevant factor is each play and whether a foul was committed.  No player should have to play by a separate set of rules.
