1). Fair catches on kickoff's anywhere inside the 25-yard line result in touchbacks and the football being placed at the 25-yard line.
2) The offense will not be allowed to block below the waist when the block occurs more than 5 yards beyond the line of scrimmage. Additionally, other than the interior linemen, all blocks below the waist must be from the front.
3). After a touchdown, the play clock will be set at 40 seconds to expedite the extra point or two-point conversion attempt. Additionally, following a kickoff, the play clock will be set to 40 seconds to restart play more quickly.
4). a 10-second runoff will occur if instant replay overturns the ruling on the field inside of one minute in either half, and the correct ruling would not have stopped the game clock.
5). It will be illegal to leap over the frame of the body of an opponent on FG's and Extra Points.
6). On successful field goals, penalty enforcement will be the same as on made extra points. Namely, all personal fouls and unsportsmanlike conduct fouls by the defending team will have the option to be enforced on the ensuing kickoff.

College football used to be the greatest sport in the world. This is the beginning of the end. No matter what happens, however, I refuse to watch soccer.

This one is going to screw over some team in year one.

Think of a disputed catch in bounds. Depending on where the catch was initiated/made, it might be favorable for you or it might not.

LSU beats Troy last year if this were in effect. Just saying.

I'm sure the REC and the SEC Office in Birmingham is going over this change with a fine-tooth comb to find ways to exploit for Bama's benefit.

Alleva should give Orgeron an extension based on this info.

Will this mean way less commercials? I feel like there are usually commercials after an extra point and after a kickoff, but I might be wrong.

Admittedly, this is the game I thought of too, but I'm not sure that's true because the purpose of the review was time on the clock not whether or not the receiver caught the ball.

Agreed

While it should not have come down to this, the Troy WR caught the ball (for a first down) with 1 second left on the clock before halftime. There is no way in hell they get the field goal team out, and snap the ball before the ref signals to start the clock from the first down move the marker stoppage. That scenario is exactly the same as the Auburn game when Etling threw a TD at the end, but it was taken back because you can't snap it within one second of the ref signaling start the clock.

Well yeah, LSU got royally fricked by the review. I was saying, unless I interpreted it incorrectly, that this rule change wouldn't have affected that play.

It wasn’t already illegal to leap?

The way I understand it is that it was illegal to leap using another player as leverage.
With this change, leaping over a player even if you don’t make contact is illegal. Think Cunningham at Vandy not making contact at all while jumping over another player and blocking the FG.

That's going to screw a lot of teams unless it only applies to challenges from the team/coach. You shouldn't have an automatic run-off if the booth is the one calling for the review.

Are you sure it doesn't just charge them a timeout in lieu of a runoff? Cause that would just be a massive oversight. I'm pretty sure that's how most runoff rules work.

1). Fair catches on kickoff's anywhere inside the 25-yard line result in touchbacks and the football being placed at the 25-yard line.
