1) get rid of kick offs and punts. They slow the game down and are two of the highest risk events for injuries. Start with the ball on the 25 on a kick off and allow 40 yards for all "punts" when a team elects to surrender possession

2) 1 yd downfield rule for blockers on pass plays

3) make intentional PI a spot foul (ie. grabbing a jersey of a guy running past you to avoid a TD). Inadvertent or normal kinds of PI would still be 15 yards.

4) limit substitutions to 1 player per play

That's stupid. One of the best weapons a team can have is a good punter that can flip the field and pin the opponent on the 2 yard line. So you just propose taking the punter completely out of college football? What is this now....Pop Warner?

1. Kickoffs and punts are fun. This is a dumb idea, Nancy.
2. I agree but they would never enforce it so what’s the point.
3. There is WAY too much room for error in this being a judgment call. Either make it a spot foul regardless or leave it alone.
4. What would teams do on the goal line?
