Thoughts on the TYTAH

Is the TYTAH (take your time always huddle) offensive strategy a gimmick or a legit offense? Many argue it creates unfair advantages for the offense that need to be addressed by rule changes, others say it's just a fad and once defenses learn how to defend it it will fade away.

While under the current rules, it's completely legal, many are wondering if this is the way the game should really be played.

Football is not rocket science, call your play and run it! Should I really have to sit here and watch a bunch of dudes hug each other in a circle for 10 seconds before every play? Is it really fair that an offense gets to take their time and go over every play before it happens in their secret meeting? Why are offenses given the luxury of a private meeting? The ball hasn't snapped yet, so why can't my linebacker go join the pow wow?

Don't get me started on the whole "winning time of possession" scheme which is just a joke. Football is a game of attacking back and forth. Oh, so you kept the ball for 10 minutes while averaging 3.4 yards per play? That sure was exciting! There's 12 games a year that you prepare all year for, let's not waste a chunk of time just so your team doesn't have to play defense as much.

Hopefully the NCAA will pass a rule requiring teams to snap the ball within 10 seconds of it being spotted. The game needs this rule change to keep the integrity of the game.
