Wisconsin's Leon Jacobs was ejected from Saturday's game vs. Troy, after he hit Trojans quarterback Brandon Silvers.

Jacobs unleashed a hard hit on Silvers just as the QB released the ball.

From the officials view it looked as through the Badger had targeted the head, being that the hit popped Silvers' helmet off. Though, Jacobs hit the signal caller square in the numbers.

Because the ejection occurred in the first half, Jacobs will only miss the remainder of Saturday's game.
