    Is it really possible the Niners didn't know the new OT rules?

    There is an argument to go first in college and the Statistics show that as it is about 50/50 on who wins based on who takes the ball first in college. I think most teams should choose defense, I do see lots of pressure on teams to match and seeing them fail, so I understand the occasional team...

    Is it really possible the Niners didn't know the new OT rules?

    I think you can argue in college to take the ball first, because you put pressure on the other team to match and there is no advantage to field position. (having four downs to match by going on defense is big here too, but I can see the argument to choose offense) However in the new NFL playoff...

    9-2 with Back to Back wins

    Minnesota game. The team came out at halftime, like they had already won the game. That happens to teams that haven't figured out how to win...sometimes you can actually get away with it, but Minnesota came out with tenacity and energy and Nebraska could not regain its energy from the first...

    Unintended consequences of nil, portal, and playoffs

    What if they playoff committee had an extra week where everyone had a flex scheduling built into their schedule...Say week the week of November 7th. Any team that wants to be considered for an at large bid, submits their team to be scheduled at a neutral site game and the playoff committee...

    Unintended consequences of nil, portal, and playoffs

    What if we moved Bowl games to either the beginning of the season. Forcing teams to play outside of their conference at a neutral site to begin the year. or Move Bowl games to the latter part of the regular season before playoffs have been selected. It could create matchups that would allow...

    Iowa Minnesota

    Rule 2.8.ARTICLE 3. An invalid signal is any waving signal by a player of Team B: So any waving of the arms deprives the return team of the opportunity to advance the ball.

    Iowa Minnesota

    It is reviewable under two sections: Rule 12.3.3.C Live ball not ruled dead in possession of ball carrier Rule 12.3.4.G Receiving team advancing after a fair catch signal Since this was a live ball that should have been ruled dead due to an invalid fair catch signal, It is reviewable.

    Rozier - Fryar Story

    Fryar's NFL stats are shockingly good. 21st all time in reception yardage...ahead of some hall of famers. Rozier is 185th in rushing yards in his 6 years...he has 700 more yards than Austin Ekeler has in his 6 years so far.

    Do you think the band should still play at the games?

    I love the band perfomance before the game(which is the same all the time). Not really a fan when they try things at halftime, though. When I was a kid, I thought the second verse of the National Anthem was Hail Varsity.

    12 Team Playoff

    The problem is we might perceive that one team had a harder schedule and played in a tougher division...but the team that went 9-3 might just have had the harder road...it is just so tough to tell which divisions are weak and which are tough because so few teams play interconference and there...

    12 Team Playoff

    They don't really matter at all now. The biggest farce is that All games matter in college football....yeah, 8-3 Purdue vs 8-3 indiana doesn't matter, but if one has a chance to make their conference championship game...it is a big deal in a playoff with automatic bids for conference champs.

    12 Team Playoff

    To me, that is the best part of the whole playoff...you find a way to win your conference based on whatever your conference rule is...and you get to the playoff. I see it as a feature not a bug.

    12 Team Playoff

    I understand what you are saying... That you can't lose...but it means less games matter not more...because if you start out the season 1-2, none of your games the rest of the way matter. A sport season to me is how a team grows and gets better...just because a team goes 11-1 and plays a soft...
