I think its the point. To sort of turn football back into football, and not a track meet.

There's already too many inelegable receiver down field calls as it is changing the yardage from 3 to 1 will just make it that much worse

Will Arkys ever forget that Malzahn left the "Natural State" Seem so bitter. Luckily you got a cheesehead, porkfeed boy to lead you to the promised land.
Why you care? Based on off season, Arky and Tenn will be in the SEC Championship game anyway. Just lay back and watch Bert work his magic

Just what we need, more oversight, more rules, more flags.

Were there attendance issues before the widespread use of the HUNH/spread offenses?
I do realize that the real reason for the downturn in attendance is rising ticket prices and the advent of HD television

I know if they change this rule, I will sell my season tickets.

If it changes from 3 to 1 yard, then the OL will now go down the field 3 yards as the original rule was intended. There were too many plays where OL were 5 yards down the field and flags weren't being thrown. There is too much going on in a play for the refs to see exactly how far down the field an OL is unless they are going to put more on the field or look from a booth.

I think it's unnecessary. They just need to call it when OL-men are downfield. Changing it to 1 yard from 3 won't matter if it's never called - or not called CONSISTANTLY, Bama.
Plus, one yard is ridiculous, a good pancake block will bring you two yards out just falling on top the guy.

I'm not sure SEC officials are that competent to enforce this consistently, too many other things to watch for.

Anything that increases offensive penalties would seem to reduce scoring. That being said, I thought there were some thoughts to add another official to help with "so much going on" during the game. It seems like the current rule could be better called with the help of an additional official.
Not really a big deal, he has an opinion, and shockingly it corresponds with what is best for his team. At least he is not trying to say it will hurt player safety or anything.

Well, sounds like he will have to get more fricking creative.

Did Gus just admit he runs a high school offense? Lol
Also interesting enough the top scoring offenses this year in order were
Points/G. Nationally
1 Georgia. 41.3. #8
2 Alabama. 36.9. #16
2 Mississippi State 36.9. #16
4 Auburn. 35.5. #27
5 Texas A&M 35.2. #28
6 South Carolina. 32.6
7 Arkansas. 31.9
8 Florida 30.3
9 Kentucky 29.2
10 Tennessee 28.9
11 Mississippi 28.3
12 Missouri. 27.8
13 LSU 27.6
14 Vanderbilt 17.2
Maybe Gus is only worried about AU scoring and not necessarily all of college football?
