IMO if offenses are going to take advantage of rules that allow for them to speed up the game and not allow defensive substitutions, then it is fair game for a defense to take advantage of the rules and fake injuries to get their substitutions in

Smartest regular poster on this board...has someone hacked your account or something? This is beyond stupid and makes no sense coming from you. In a HUNH, if they make no subs, D cannot sub. Therefore, no one was able to sub, advantage in personnel, no one. In a HUNH, if the O does sub, the officials are required to give equal time to the D to sub (hence the standing over the ball while the offense waits). Advantage, no one. The HUNH on a long drive benefits the team with better conditioning and you think it is fair game to fake injuries to negate that advantage? That is cheating, it is crap, and you are smarter than this.

UGA. Moved to Georgia when I was 3. Have lived here for 27 years, minues the 5 I was at AU.

Offered a good program for the degree I wanted at the time, and it was far enough away from home that my parents wouldn't expect me to commute from home.

Nope. Dad went to LSU. Mom went to UGA.

Sorry, not trying to be nosy, just genuinely interested how that works. For me, I've grown up in Louisiana my entire life, all my family pulled for LSU, and my uncle played for the Tigers in the 70's so there was no question where my allegiances went from day 1.
That's why I'm always interested and curious when somebody has a story different to how their fandom came to be. Doesn't make it any better or worse than mine or anybody elses, just different and unique which I think is always interesting and what makes it such an awesome sport.

its definitely bush league and teams should get called out for it. if a team is wearing you out you should call a timeout.
on the other hand, I hate seeing refs helping no huddle teams out by hurrying to pick up the ball and sprinting to the line of scrimmage. they should move at the same pace that they do with regular offenses

Sure they can.
But the officials don't have to stop the offense and give them time to sub. That's the difference.
They can have players running on and off like chickens with their heads cut off if they want. Just (1) they better be damn sure only 11 are on the field at one time and (2) it ain't Gus Malzahn's responsibility to slow things down and let them get set at their positions.

Auburn players always had the ball to the ref. It's makes it go faster because the ref doesn't have to go pick it up.

completely unrelated to the OP - but something I observed and thought was funny and Ironic.
right before Lutz caught the go ahead score, the play from the sideline was a big picture of Cam Smiling. my 1st thought was - wtf are we using a pic of Cam for on the sideline, then we ran the play and scored.
the ironic thing is that was the same play Cam ran last year in the IB to score the go ahead and winning TD to Lutz.

I don't know if you understand what irony is, but yes it was the same play and it's been used 4 or 5 times now in the exact same situation. I called it before it happened as soon as saw Lutzenbobble running onto the field. Beats me how Gus can keep getting away with it, but more power to him if teams aren't going to watch tape get ready for a team. I know when Bama plays on Pat Dye field this year, they better make sure to cover Lutzenwarble, especially inside the redzone. Kid is automatic.

i probly missused Irony there - i do that often :P
I do agree with you - we have run it repeatedly and yet its like teams forget to defend it.

when they hit it against bama last year, it was like when you drop something and seems like it takes 30 seconds to get from your hands to the ground but there's absolutely nothing you can do about it.
Snap the ball there he goes and within 2 seconds everyone in the stadium knew what was happening but the good guys couldn't do anything to keep evil from prevailing that playPosted on 10/4/11 at 2:31 pm to flomacanes
LOL i see what you did there
FWIW i think the TE position is one of the most under utilized positions in Football (College and Pro) aside from Blocking.

No, it hasn't.
It has been run twice.

Lutzenkirchen plays pretty much the whole game. Why would him being on the field be different from any other offensive play?

This I agree with.

Well, if you were watching the game you would've noticed him RUNNING ONTO THE FIELD for that 3rd down play
