Video of the late hit. Thoughts?
“It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.”
Hard to tell from that angle. It almost looks like he was falling/stumbling into the tackle. You can see his legs somewhat flailing out of control as if he were trying to regain balance after shedding the block.
Tough to lose your QB on a play like that, but I didn't see it as a cheap shot or dirty play. Should have been flagged for a late hit, but that was simply a bad position to be in and a freak shot.

My my, you changed your tune. Did you change the thread title in the last hour or so or something?
Listen, if you're looking for some sort of validation from the rest of us... sorry, you can't tell much from that video. You sure as hell can't say it was a cheap shot from it. Looks to me like he stumbled into Olsen.

It almost looks like that hit on Carson Palmer last year by Kemo VonOlhauffen. I would say Kemo's looked cheap (especially after he pulled the same shit on Peyton the following week) but I don't think you can see enough with those angles. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't. Sucks to lose your QB that way but calling out Stoops on that play is a little steep.
