NCAA Approves Changes to Targeting Rule: Georgia Bulldogs Benefit in 2026 Season
The NCAA has made a significant change to the targeting rule, allowing players to return for the full next game after their first targeting penalty, regardless of when the flag was thrown. This update addresses the issue of players missing crucial moments due to the previous rule, which required them to sit out the entire first half of the following game. While the rule change doesnt affect how targeting calls are made or reviewed, its a step towards fairer play, particularly for teams like the Georgia Bulldogs, who can now expect more stability on defense in the 2026 season.
