Yes. For the same reason that "hurry up" pitching doesn't exist in baseball.

Don't we already have a play clock in place?

If you snap the ball after the 25 seconds - it's delay of game. Lose 5 yards.

Well...if you snap the ball before 15 seconds - no good. Lose 5 yards.

Sit out rest of series or 5 plays. If series only has 1 more play then must sit 4 plays next series. Series means your side of ball, if defender snaps only count while your team plays D. And not able to play special teams if snaps carry over.

The reason for the scroll is so the opponent can’t tell who really is or isn’t injured. If you have to have a list, just list everybody and the list is worthless.

easy to say in your ivory tower as an alabama fan, while running a fast paced offense with depth only uga can match....gtfo

I’ve been advocating for this since 2012, my guy. Of course back then it was because I was afraid of a level playing field and concerned because Saban couldn’t defend against it.

Offenses will once again have to earn it instead of using fatigue and confusion as a replacement for talent.

hahahahaha

The weakness in that is the Lane's of the world will run a walk-on out there for one play with instructions to flop. Who cares if he's lost for the remainder of the possession?

---

The flopping is so it stops the offense.. This theory doesn't hold water.

Defense cannot sub unless the Offense subs.

So Lane is going to wait... Let the offense sub, run a walk on out there..

Help me out, is there going to be a play run before he flops or after?

Mehh you can do better with your Lane shade

NCAA logic

Will also increase liability. That rule would cause some truly injured players to metaphorically "rub some dirt on it" because they don't want to sit out a possession. Having some legitimately hurt player who does not have all their faculties make a split second decision to get up or stay down can cause that player to make a really dumb move that then could cause them to get injured even worse. Player will then tell court that they would not have gotten up if they thought they could be evaluated and then reenter the game. NCAA liable.

The NCAA would rather have a product with flops than make a rule that could even slightly increase their liability and lose them and their affiliates money and lead to a public court case.

Very true

Make a flopper sit out for ten minutes. I guess that means make anyone who goes down sit out ten minutes or five minutes but a minimum of five or ten plays. Really injured people will sit out for that long anyway. Slightly injured guys will get up quicker.

I'm actually ok with them having to sit for the remainder of the possession.

how to fix flopping

---

It’s easy! While players are done being tended to, the booths has time to review the injury while players are being attended to without adding any more time to the game. Of a player is seen looking towards the sideline and then drops after the play is over and he got up on his own, then it should be a delay of game and penalty, or an unsportsmanlike penalty for 15yds. And if the same player gets 2 unsportsmanlike penalty for faking injuries, then he must leave the game immediately for the remainder of the game.

This can be fix if the NCAA and SEC wants to. You can watch replay and see a player get up on his own power, and then fall down once he looks around and realizes his team
Isn’t set, that is pretty obvious.

I think you'd see a mass amount of bench players being inserted that wouldn't be missed if they were out 5 plays or 5 games. Kind of like in basketball where they stick the white bench guys in at the end of the game to eat up fouls.
