I think most of these comments are dictated by the types of offenses a fan's team is currently running.
Personally, I find offensive shoot-outs boring. But that's me, and I know I'm in a minority. If the rule change allows the defense to make changes before the ball is snapped, what's the problem? The offense can still change the play before snapping the ball. It just gives the defense some additional time to make adjustments. Whether the adjustments will be correct still remains an open question.

Football was never intended to be a continuous play game. It was play-by-play. If you want to make it continuous play, fine, but just understand that you are the ones wanting to change the game. The proposed rule would simply keep things more like they've always been.
By far the shittiest attempt at excuse making and rationalizing yet.
The only problem i have with hunh is when teams use it as an excuse to absolutely skull frick overmatched opponents.
The old, "we didnt mean to score 80 against florida a&m , its just our offense made us do it."
And its not a coaches job to keep his offense from scoring but if you are snapping the ball against d2 teams w 35 seconds on the playclock up by 40 i think you are a douche.

Do not care about HUNH offenses. Gets the opponents offense off the field faster and gives your offense more time to develop the run game.

First off, for excluding Vandy. We matter some now. As for the rule, Mason handled Oregon just fine. HUNH offenses don't worry me.
Even if they did, I would blame our coaches for not stopping it. The point of football is for the offense to try something then the defense has to stop it. If the HUNH was some egregious advantage, I could maybe see restricting it. It's not though. The coaches who don't like it are just running defensive schemes aimed at countering one type of offense. It's like trying to get rock banned from rock-paper-scissors because you want to use scissors every time.

Well Florida's supposedly going to the HUNH this season so that's awesome.
I think asking Florida fans right now will skew any results because 99% of us are so freaking sick of the slow, ball control, run it again, neanderthal football that failed Boom experiment has imposed that we'd do just about anything to place with pace and in the spread again.
All, I know is I don't understand how Arkansas fans can do it- these last 3 years have been the worst football I've ever seen as a Florida fan even the Sugar Bowl season was fricking painful to watch-- to want to root for this style of play ugh... I don't get it man.

Our teams are the only relevant ones that don't have coaches throwing fits one way or the other, so I'm interested how the fans feel.
Coaches must adjust to it. There is nothing wrong with it imho.

Doesn't matter. LSU will smash.

Well Fat Phil ruined our first HUNH and now we run the WSIENH (We'll Snap It Eventually No Huddle) so I guess it won't affect us but as you said and I said earlier this is how football is evolving.
I personally want the ability for our diet coke of hurry ups to one day blossom into an actual hurry up offense like Bobo promised would happen this year with Mason.

Meh..It's a stradegy like any other. Football is a game of stradegy. So it's just one tool in the shed.

Quick, change stradegy to strategy before the grammar police arrive

Are you familiar w/ the term "red herring?"

I don't like HUNH, but I think it's wrong to change the rules.
Posted on 2/14/14 at 5:02 pm to Swagga
I think it's great for football. Especially since we seem to have no problems stopping it.
Posted on 2/14/14 at 5:19 pm to Swagga
I don't have a problem with it, and stopping the HUNH has been one of Muschamp's few redeeming qualities.
Posted on 2/14/14 at 5:23 pm to Swagga
I wouldn't want LSU to go to HUNH.
Having said that, it's exciting and fun to watch us play against.
