new 10 second roll-off rule for teams with an injury..


Jul 23, 2013, 2:46 AM

I understand it where a team could stall by faking injuries, but what about the other way around for a legit injury?

I can see several scenarios where this rule could really hurt the "fairness" of the game. Picture being on offense on the goal line down by 4, and there is 10 seconds left, no time outs and someone gets hurt. Game over. ouch. Thoughts?

Nobody on the defense would fake an injury when they are ahead on the scoreboard, with almost no time on the clock and the offense having no time outs left.

Only the offense could gain from this situation.

Picture a team faking an injury to stop the clock. The injured man has to leave the field and a substitute is put in with the clock stopped. The play resumes when the officials determine the new guy is in place. The 'cheaters,' are rewarded for being dishonest and being without a timeout.

Who's to say if the injury is faked or real? Even someone as qualified as a doctor can't say a player isn't hurt. He may be able to tell for certain that a player is hurt but he can't say a player isn't hurt. You can't make a player get up and move without everybody getting drug into court.

The officials surely are not qualified to deliberate on the authenticity of an injury so the NCAA puts the responsibility on the team that has the most to gain from faking an injury.

It may leave a mark on football but one thing's for sure they've kept everybody who finds themselves in this situation from cheating and stealing a victory from a better team.

You for or against the new helmet to helmet penalties?


Jul 23, 2013, 5:33 AM [ in reply to what is going to end up happen.you will have players.. ]

One who is for player safety would say they are against this rule for the reason you've stated and for the H2H penalty for the same reason.

One who says they are against this rule for player safety but also against the new penalty for helmet to helmet might say they are just against rules in general.

I'd say it's downtime, I am suffering tremendously and taking it out on everybody by being a caustic, objectively contentious prik. :)

I say don't call any time outs in second half. Just fake an injury if coach/player need conversation before last minute. Save T Outs for last 30 seconds.
