Why not set a score from the beginning?
Still don’t get the advantage …

Do you ever see the Elam Ending being adopted at a college or pro level?

I hope to. It improves the game.

It is so both teams don't start playing the clock rather than basketball

It rewards the team ahead but keeps them playing to the end and gives a chance

The target score is determined in game if you are ahead by 20 when they set it

Could it be adapted to football?

Hadn’t thought about it. It would be fun to see Bama not play keep away ball.

If you are up, would you want to get a whistle right at 4 minutes?

Isn’t there already a 5 minute TV timeout? Could change momentum but I would

One downside is it discourages use of bench of bench players in blowouts.

Upcoming player development, or reward time for bench lifers.

Elam Ending with NIL in college ball= a dramatic locker room for underclassmen

I could see that happening. I'm in favor of the EE. I was just responding to possible downsides.

The biggest advantage is to stop strategic fouling at the end of the game.
