The proposed rule changes to the way the clock will be managed for the 2023 season have been mentioned on here several times recently so they are no secret. If you've missed it here is a link that summarizes the changes: Timing rules changes proposed in footballNational Collegiate Athletic Associationhttps://www.ncaa.org › news › 2023 › media-center-ti...

I'm curious as to the scrolls viewpoint on this. Personally, I see this having a very big detrimental change on the game and have had no concerns about the length of games currently. Generally, I have a DVR that can speed the games up all I want so I find this whole discussion a little disturbing. It isn't 1990, and broadcasting technology has changed dramatically so that I rarely spend more than 90 minutes watching a game, and neither does anyone else if they are concerned about the amount of time for the broadcast.

Rather, I see these changes driven by the television networks to reduce dead time in the broadcast and try to stop some of the fast forwarding. Just another bad example of the money overruling the quality of the football IMO.

I'm not against change, but change to the way the game is played should be few and undertaken very carefully. This is one of the major reasons I seldom watch the NFL for decades because they are constantly changing the rules about seemingly everything. Consequently, any discussion of who is the best historical player at a position are just folly because comparing a recent player to one that played 20, 30, 40, 50 years ago, etc. is impossible because they really played different games and it's comparing apples to oranges for the most part.

Baseball Live Thread Game 33 FINAL: Nebraska 18, Northwestern 5

Nebraska (20-11-1, 6-2) is back at Hawks Field on this windy afternoon as they look to sweep Northwestern (5-24 3-5) after beating the Wildcats in the first two games of this three-game weekend series. Yesterday, Nebraska only needed one inning as the Husker offense went off in the second inning to plate nine runs on eight hits as NU had two singles, three doubles and a two-run home run by Gabe Swansen to cap it off. Jackson Brockett was equally as impressive on the mound, turning in a career-high six shutout innings scattering three hits with four strikeouts. Here's that recap from yesterday:


It was the complete opposite on Friday as Northwestern hopped on top of Husker ace Emmett Olson 3-0 as he could only go 3.1 innings. The bullpen picked up the slack as Corbin Hawkins came in to fire 3.1 shutdown innings while Kyle Perry followed suit with 2.1 scoreless innings. The Husker offense kept on coming and went on to score eight unanswered runs to take the series opener. Here's that recap:


Today it'll Will Walsh (1-1, 3.86 ERA) on the mound to take on RHP Luke Benneche (0-3, 9.28 ERA). Nebraska has to feel good heading into today as they will have the full strength of the bullpen available beceause of yesterday's blowout win. That includes bullpen ace Shay Schanaman and impact lefty Jake Bunz. Here's the full series preview.
