College teams can have over 100 on their roster...

But are not allowed to have duplicate numbers on the field at the same time.

Say they wanted Ty'son and Dyan on the field at the same time for some package or special teams...one of them would have to change their jersey number for that play.

So I saw something on the sideline I'd never seen before. USC changed jerseys on

I thought I heard one number announcement change.

It was announced by the ref.

It’s so players can play both sides of the ball, I think it’s common for players that do that

That sounds right. I would have said #9, but it could have been #7. I see, that

Pretty sure I've seen BYU do that before, can't remember exactly when but maybe

I think it was just after a punt. they ran off, changed numbers, and ran back on

If one of the plays was a special teams play that would make sense

Martin Van Nostrand

That makes sense.

It’s common due to lack of numbers. There are limited numbers

Okay, weird. But in this case at least one of them changed from a unique number

BlueTooth

Yeah, that’s fine as long as they didn’t have 2 of the same number.
