There is a reason virtually NO OTHER SPORT has a running clock that counts UP. Cause it's freaking stupid and unintuitive.

Yup, these two changes might be enough by themselves to shorten the games enough

I wish Texas HS football would limit halftime to 20 minutes. But no, they have

Can they just cut out halftime marching bands? Bring in standup comic instead?

Good. Fix halftime. Then, don't stop the clock on every 1st down.
