Tommy Tuberville Is Still Definitely 'Not Tolerating' Dirty Blocks

Last year, when Auburn's freshman right tackle, Lee Ziemba, chop-blocked LSU standout Glenn Dorsey, many an excuse was made. Many of them sounded plausible. Tommy Tuberville admitted that the block was illegal and said that he didn't tolerate those sorts of things. Of course, as noted here, he "didn't tolerate" it by doing absolutely nothing to Ziemba.

It seems that ~~Ziemba~~ the team learned a valuable lesson: that dirty blocks are fine by Tuberville. Last night, after the Tide had the game well in hand, ~~Ziemba~~ an as yet unidentified lineman decided to take out a little of his frustration on an Alabama defensive lineman -- by diving at his knee . . . from behind.

See this makes last year's claim of "it was an accident" seem much less believable as there's just absolutely no justifiable reason for this block. The victim (who appears to be defensive lineman Luther Davis) is about as far out of the play as it's possible to get, is facing away from Ziemba his assailant, and is just getting up. It's a dirty play, through and through.

We should all rest easy, though, I'm sure Ziemba the guy will get the same harsh punishment this time that he did last year.

UPDATE: Upon further review, it looks like Ziemba was at left tackle on the play in question and I can't get a good read on the jersey number of the guy playing on the other side.
