Yes!  Fake punt for first down!

Great field position.  Need to get the offense going again.

Big Stop D!

Missed FG.  Cats keep lead, need to turn the momentum back here.

TD Cats!

Looks like a very sparse crowd, at least from the two seconds my video feed has worked. Maybe the cold weather is actually negating the homefield advantage.

I'm listening to the UWW audio (their audio link, not the video guys) and they're pretty good.  Much more professional than D and D.

..and what I see is Meng hitting him with his shoulder right above the numbers of his chest.  I don't see him launching himself either but bracing for impact and I think that's a big difference.

You just contradicted yourself.  Either he's bracing for impact or he's creating the impact.  In the slowed down version, his feet are perpendicular to the ground at the time of impact and are coming off the ground.  It looks like his helmet made contact with the chin zone but the shoulder impact was in the upper sternum and enough to force the blindsided player back before the helmet became the primary issue.  I'll try to post the video and still via Twitter -- @FrankRossi -- never tried posting a video through there, though.

I would argue that your picture shows the hit was legal.  The key term in the rule interpretation you posted (in my mind), was the phrase "initial contact." My opinion is that the picture show the blocker led with his shoulder and it appears that the initial impact was to the chest of the opponent. The follow through led to contact with the neck and head area, but the initial impact does seem to be in the chest.
