The NCAA Football Rules Committee met this week in Indianapolis and
ultimately proposed two rule changes for the 2014 season and beyond.
First, the committee proposed a change to the rules regarding targeting
penalties – a big source of contention among fans last season.
Last year, any player who was called for targeting would be ejected and his
team would be assessed a 15-yard penalty. Every call deemed targeting was
looked at further via instant replay. If determined that the call was not
targeting as initially called, the ejection was overturned but the penalty
yardage was still enforced.
Moving forward, the committee suggested that if an instant replay official
decides that a disqualification should not have been enforced, the 15-yard
penalty also should not be enforced. If another personal foul penalty was
called in addition to the targeting, like a roughing the passer call, the
penalty would still be enforced but the player would not be ejected.
“Overall, the targeting rule was successful and has had the intended impact
of making play safer,” said Air Force coach Troy Calhoun, who is also the
chair of the committee. “This alteration keeps the intent of the rule but
allows replay to correct all of the consequences from a rare missed call.”
Additionally, the committee recommended a change in defensive substitution
that allows defenses “to substitute within the first 10 seconds of the 40-
second play clock, with the exception of the final two minutes of each half,
starting with the 2014 season.”
If approved, this rule would not allow offenses to snap the ball until the
play clock reaches 29 seconds. If the offense snaps the ball prior to the 29
-second mark, a five-yard delay of game penalty would be issued.
Many collegiate offenses utilize no-huddle and fast tempo offenses, but the
committee does not think this rule would impact the pace of these offenses.
The committee believes that 10 seconds provides sufficient time for
defensive player substitutions without inhibiting the ability of an offense
to play at a fast pace. Research indicated that teams with fast-paced, no-
huddle offenses rarely snap the ball with 30 seconds or more on the play
clock.
Under the current set of rules, defensive players have no guaranteed ability
to execute substitutions unless the offense does so first
“This rules change is being made to enhance student-athlete safety by
guaranteeing a small window for both teams to substitute,” Calhoun said. “
As the average number of plays per game has increased, this issue has been
discussed with greater frequency by the committee in recent years and we
felt like it was time to act in the interests of protecting our student-
athletes.” | K***a

发帖数: 537 | 4 Proponents of the college football rule proposal to give defenses 10 seconds
before each play to substitute players have said that the change has player
safety in mind.
However, an NCAA rules committee member says that there's "not really much
hard data" supporting the player safety angle.
"I think it's fair to say it's one of those things that's been growing,"
committee member Rogers Redding told CBS Sports, "It hasn't been a huge
surge. It's kind of one those things that was floating in the background and
it kind of came to a head. ...
"I think it's fair to say there's not really much hard data on this."
In addition to defenses getting 10 seconds to sub, offenses would be
prohibited from snapping the ball with more than 29 seconds remaining on the
play clock. That means the play clock would have to run at least 11 seconds
before a play, lest the offense risk a penalty.
One of the main proponents of the change is Arkansas coach Bret Bielema. He'
s pitched similar ideas before, and Bielema was in attendance at the NCAA
rules committee meetings this week in Indianapolis.
Bielema doesn't have voting privileges on the rules committee, though SI.com
reported that both Bielema and Alabama coach Nick Saban were in attendance
during the discussion about the rule change. Saban has also been critical of
uptempo offenses in the past and has used the "player safety" angle before.
In case you were wondering, last season Arkansas was 121st out of 125 FBS
teams in plays per game and Alabama was 116th. Louisiana-Monroe coach Todd
Berry and Air Force's Troy Calhoun are the two coaches with voting
privileges on the committee. LMU was 53rd in PPG while Air Force was 104th.
Already, coaches like Arizona's Rich Rodriguez have spoken out against the
possible rule change. Ole Miss's Hugh Freeze has also asked for the data
supporting the player-safety angle. Though given Redding's comments, it may
not exist.
The offensive explosion in college football can be attributed to increased
tempo, and when you add in player fatigue, it is much tougher to defend.
While those supporting the rule changes may feel that they have the best
interests of tired defenders in mind, we must not forget that there's
strategical impact at the root of the discussion too. Every extra second to
scheme and substitute for a defense is an advantage.
This is a discussion that's only going to increase from now until March 6,
when the NCAA's Playing Rules Oversight Panel rules on the issue. As it does
escalate, you'll see that coach opinions will likely correlate to where his
team is on the plays-per-game list.

if anyone tackles another player whose weight is at least 50 lbs less, that'
s also an automatic ejection
