4.3 Overtime College Rules
Maybe im blind but I don't see anything on time outs

4.4.6 and 5.2.8 Hurry Up Offense
Why??
Hurry up offense is a strategy Ala 1990's Buffalo Bills with Jim Kelly... Why does the "O" have to tip their hand before we set the next play and tell our opponent we are hurry'n up??? If the "O" can catch the "D" sleeping all the better. D needs to be on their toe's and can prevent substitution and most of all, it's part of football.

4.5 Time Outs
There is nothing about charging injury time outs inside of 2 minutes at the end of game (if they have TO's to give)... maybe thats a pro thing I don't know

5.2.9 Stacking
This is fine... but ya'll should try the no stacking rules sometime... it's truly more like football... I hated it at first... but then it made the game much much better

5.4.2.2 and 5.6.1 Scrambling
Why only if the play began with an immobile base??? why does it matter??? Just curious

5.4.3.6 Dbl 2's box roll
Out west its off setting penalties... do over.. it's really cool... both teams are equally hit by the box... not just the "O"

6.2.2 Onside kick
If the kicking team recovers the ball.. they cannot advance the ball... maybe thats a pro thing too

7.5.4 Coach's Challenge
So we cannot challenge a fumble on the box??? We should address that... out west as long as the a team has T.O.'s to give they can challenge the the box on a fumble... nothing else... it is football

Damm I read the whole thing... there really isn't much different than our rule set... It's just been tweaked since we started 10 years ago... I also did see a few things that need to be re implemented or be up for discussion her in LA.

In my opinion the TEXAS SHOOTOUT rules are the best rule set I've played

luv ya'll, celo


Sounds like a man who should be on next year's rules committee!
