I think if you want this rule to have an impact and make sense (do what it's intended to do), it should be extended to 20 seconds (15 at least). The game should be balanced between offense and defense otherwise it's just flag football really.

Re: Rules Ctne recommends 10 second substitution window
Not what I was saying. I was simply saying Oklahoma, a team who runs their fair share of HUNH, only ran 6 plays under 10 seconds. 7% of your total plays isn't much at all. I wasn't saying they won because of the HUNH.

I think the biggest impact is what somebody else in this thread alluded to, that this rule will overall slow down the pace of the game. I don't think the referees and everyone else will be moving at such a torrid pace to accommodate the offense. This will result in the referees being in better positions so they don't miss as many calls. Im just glad they are doing something to combat the offense lining up and trying to "catch" the defense before they line up. That type of play is bush league to me.
Re: Rules Ctne recommends 10 second substitution window
This rule will not be the drastic change the the barners think it will, but it will help level the playing field for the defense. There are been so many rules in place to aid the offenses for years now, and I think this is a good rule to give the defense a chance to substitute.
If half of those 6 plays were 3rd downs resulting in first downs, we probably win that game. It took AU one play to beat us. The fact that the offense CAN snap the ball at 5 seconds keeping defenses from substituting cannot be understated. You point to only 6 plays that OU did snap it early, but you cannot to how times we didn't substitute because of the fact that they could possibly snap it at any time.

Re: Rules Ctne recommends 10 second substitution window
After some thought, I believe that this is not aimed so much at the play cycle itself but at the refs. It will at least take their attention somewhat off scurrying and scrambling back into place to accommodate the offense and pay some attention to the bare ten seconds accorded the defense...

Is that really Mike Gundy on twitter? If so, he is acting like a baby on there about this issue. Thought he was a "man".

Yup. The refs allow the games pace to speed up. All it takes is a ref moving at a normal speed, spotting the ball, checking that his buddies are set, and then allowing the offense to get ready.

This is very similar to the unwritten NFL policy to allow 10-12 seconds between plays to accommodate the refs. Chip Kelly doesn't care for it
Re: Rules Ctne recommends 10 second substitution window
Counter proposal from HUNH coaches is being drafted now. It will involve a rule change. An "illegal procedure" penalty on the defense. If this rule is enacted, then defenders, for player safety, will be required to stay still and will not be able to move pre-snap. Just what I'm hearing.

Re: Rules Ctne recommends 10 second substitution window
I hope that was supposed to be in blue
Re: Rules Ctne recommends 10 second substitution window
This^^^ is why I think it will make a difference. I'd love to see the breakdown of the AU game, because they actually ran the same play like 3 or 4 times in a row at one point. These are back to back to back plays where our defense could not substitute. This is why I think the rule levels the playing field somewhat.

I bet he doesn't. And neither will Gundy, Bob, Gus and Freeze. Oh well, they'll have to get over it and coach their players up to play grown man football.
Re: Rules Ctne recommends 10 second substitution window
I tend to agree with the font. They'd like to put the defense in concrete boots, if they could - and there're some who'd think it was great football...
