Reducing risk and injuries should be primary concern, but there is no data that suggests there is more injury on either side of the ball in games that involve a high tempo team. I find what is happening behind the scenes much more intriguing with two heavy-weight SEC coaches, Bielema and Saban, directly influencing the rules committee. Instead of beating the high tempo teams with defense, they are pushing the change in rules. That just doesn't sit right with me.

Quote:The new rule proposal in cfb is not needed if you ask me. There's an easier way to slow down offenses; don't let them get 1st downs. If a team can't move the chains, they have to slow it down themselves to let their defense rest. It can be done, takes the right mindset.

If I had a dollar every time I was distracted, I wish I had some ice cream.
