Love that one. I agree.

I have the opposite view, at least for extra points: adopt rugby rules. Kick the

Can you imagine if basketball overtime was half court

College overtime is awesome and 100X better than the NFL.

Eliminate kickoffs. 4th and 15 from the 30 instead

You mean onside kickoffs I assume.

No. All kickoffs. You can either go for it or you can give the other team the ball at their 25

So you want BYU kickers to miss even more PAT? 😔

Get rid of fair catch on kickoff or move the touchback line back to the 20.

Agreed. Either get rid of kickoffs or make them a meaningful play.

Move back the XP. It doesn't have to be 35-yard FG attempt like the NFL. But something more difficult than a 19-yarder

If you are down while on top of another player you are down

You have to be touched when you're down to be down.

Get rid of face masks.

No illegal touching on punts.

The #1 rule that needs to change in College and NFL

Why? What would you prefer? The offense allowed to fumble forward

USMCdad

12/2/19 9:47pm

Back to the offense

MacsKid

12/2/19 9:51pm

Yeah I’m fine with a fumble in the field of play going back to the offense

USMCdad

12/2/19 9:55pm

The other team should have to recover it. If they dont, offense gets it back where they lost possession

YIsForBrigham

So if the offense fumbles out their own end zone no safety?

USMCdad

12/2/19 10:23pm

No that’s different. A safety is a safety. If a player were to run out of bounds in their own endzone then it’s a safety

So you only reward the defense if the fumble is in one end zone
