Just legalize the forward pass up to the 25 by the return team with all or a certain number of return players being eligible to catch a pass already.

KO teams HAVE to be less aggressive for obvious reasons and... even more offense which fans tend to like.

Done and done.

Let’s just eliminate tackling and call it The Big 12.

Why not just prohibit the kicking team from getting a running start ? Collisions will be far less violent and more offense.

Instead of automatically rewarding a team the 25-yard line for fair catches made inside the 25, they should award them the ball 10 yards upfield for any catch made between the goal line & the 15 yard line, and five yards for catches made between the 15 & the 20. If a catch is made beyond the 20 yard line, then you get the ball where you caught it.

I don't think you should punish a team for having a good kicker.

It just gets more and more pathetic by the season.

God, it's going to suck when September comes around and the only thing to think about is "hey, hockey season is next month and basketball is 2 months away!"

More teams, with good kickers, will just instruct them to have line drive type kicks that have a bounce
to them...It is much harder to field, there will be no fair catch, and the runners will be more at risk
because it will be difficult to field the ball on the run, forcing them to stop to field it and be a sitting
duck when the tacklers arrive.

Well at least Ohio State has no more excuses for kicking the ball out of bound.

if they had to make this rule, they should have went back to the 20 yard line. stop punishing good kickers and cover teams.

btw, i'm new, so howdy everybody
Alabama, LSU and Georgia? :scratch:

Do you not think that one guy who is an Alabama & LSU fan and another who is an Alabama, LSU, & Georgia the epitome of TeamSEC mentality?
