OT: can targeting be called on review for other reasons

[FanatiCat]

At the end of regulation Ga - Ga Tech, the Ga Tech QB fumbled on what would have nearly been a game clinching first down. They reviewed the fumble and it clearly showed a targeting hit which is probably what caused the QB to fumble, actually. Obviously the refs were not going to add this against UGA at home but could they have?

Yes. Targeting can be initiated from booth review.

ESecPN wasn't gonna let GA lose. Announcers never said a word about it. Led with crown and hit him right in the face mask

That’s because the game was an “SEC on ABC” broadcast. Should have been called.
