Can you call targeting if it happens between the same team?
Well, apparently not, because West Virginia just did a test run for us. The Mountaineers ended up muffing a punt because a West Virginia player leveled their punt returner just as he was set to field and Oklahoma State punt.
Of course, the Cowboys recovered in the middle of a huge moment in the game. Check out the madness below:

The Cowboys ended up taking a 27-24 lead just a few moments later:

The Cowboys had to withstand a flurry from the Mountaineers in the 2nd quarter following a 10-0 start.
