NCAA vs. NFL

Which game do you feel like it last longer?
Do you think the NCAA feels like it last longer, or do you feel as if the NFL last longer?
I think NFL games drag on. Buddy feels the opposite.

It really depends on if its a cbs primetime sec game or some mac matchup. The commercial breaks are much worse in the nfl on average, but halftime is a lot quicker.

College stops the clock after every first down. College lasts longer.

NFL halftime is shorter also

The NFL can definitely feel longer at times, because of the score-commercial-kickoff-commercial sequence that's all too common. With the clock not stopping on first downs and a shorter halftime, though, an NFL game is actually shorter than college on average.

Yea but the play clock in ncaa makes up for that. Nfl is 40

WKU and LA Tech started at 7.
Pats and Steelers started at 7:30.
Both are just now going into HT.

But the early ESPN Big Ten game routinely lasts less than 3 hours, probably because they run the football so damn much. I think the Stanford/Northwestern game ended at about 1:40 and I'm not even exaggerating.
For some reason, a lot of SEC games last forever. I actually think I remembered the 2011 SEC Championship Game between LSU and Georgia lasting about 7 hours.
However, the NFL has their stuff so damn calculated at this point. They know how to make virtually every game last 3 hours and 10 minutes. Something strange has to happen for the first game to run into the 2nd-game window. But that's what people are getting so sick of with the NFL too--that everything is so damn calculated. Seriously, they find ways to artificially slow fast games down. If it goes too fast and a player suddenly starts limping to the sidelines, the guy with the orange gloves on the sideline will tell the referees to stop the game because they're throwing some commercials in as fast as they can.

That game ended a little after 2.
People hate CBS but there's nothing better than that early November game where it's crisp and cool and the shadows are long and the game is breaking 4 hours.

NFL games feel like they're slower but they aren't. It's just the nature or professional sports.
