Brandon Marcello ?@bmarcello 1m
RT @McMurphyESPN: In @ESPN poll of all 128 FBS coaches, only 25 favor 10-second rule proposal

Still, I expect it to pass, even though 103 are opposed to the new rule....

It said 25 are in favor, that doesn't mean that 103 are opposed. For all we know 100 of the coaches polled just don't give a shite. Which I assume is the case with half of them.

The only rules that need to be fine tuned are rules allowing ample time for defensive substitutions when the offensive makes substitutions.

The rest of this nonsense makes those proposing look like pansies. It isnt about player safety, its about competitive advantage. Which begs the question, if there is a marked "advantage" for teams running the HUNH, why the need to hide behind "player safety"?

Its so transparent that it's laughable.

Yep, most probably don't care since it will not impact their style of play. However, they might glad when they face a hurry up offense that would have prevented them from making substitutions on defense or incur penalties for doing so. The issue is not really the 10 seconds; the issue is that if a hurry up offense is ready to snap the ball quickly every down and does so while the defense is trying to substitute, the offense picks up an easy 5 yard penalty every time they catch the defense doing so.

They should just go back to the old 25 second play clock rule. The defense could sub and teams were still able to run hurry up offenses

Let's guess on the names of some of those 25.

Muschamp, Saban,BB, Miles and Mason in the SEC.

The poll had three options:
1. Favor
2. Opposed
3. Undecided.
