Really wish they’d bring back the old clock rules.

They won’t, because these people suck, but it was a far more entertaining watch.

Old clock rules were recently mandated by the high chancellor to be ineligible due to prior use in nfl preseason training camps.

Remember when they said it was to make game times shorter but in reality it was to keep the game times the same but just have way more commercials?

The games used to go on too long especially on CBS. The game would last 3.5 to 4 hours.

College should adopt NFL rules with timing and the clock. The goal of college players is to get to the NFL anyways.

4 hour long college football games are not good

It’s mostly due to tv production, but that’s not getting better
