Rule Changes YOU Should know entering 2024 College Football Season | 10 Second Runoff, 2 Min Warning 

Here is a crazy idea, Instead of trying to shorten the game why not shorten the commercial breaks.

10 second runoff rule is one of the worst rules in football.

I absolutely hate the idea of a 10 second runoff rule for incompletions after 2 minutes. It’ll just ruin the excitement at the end of many games. I bet we have a lot less successful 2 minute drives with it and that just hurts the game.

the 10 second runoff rule is going to decide a huge game this year lol

Media timeouts should not exist

There should be ZERO! Let me say this again. ZERO! Influence of the game by ANY means from a television network!

It's already bad before any of this. how much the TV timeouts would kill any momentum a team has or adrenaline a player has. I absolutely hated them when I played. And now watching a game live and seeing it, makes my blood boil.

That’s great. That is exactly what college football needs more stoppage of play and more commercials. I can barely stomach watching it now. In fact, I would rather watch the replay without commercials.

Officials should have post game interviews

College football is ruining itself for a paycheck. More commercials, more playoff games, etc. just turning into the junior NFL and it sucks to see

The 10 second runoff is the last thing we need. Every year we do more and more to destroy football. They have destroyed the game. Is it any wonder attendance is down?

Calling it "2 Minute Timeout" instead of warning is the greatest failure of our generation

So the shortest games will be at least 4 hours, then you still take 10 seconds away from teams in the final 2 minutes = BS.

The Texas Longhorn and Oklahoma OU being on the list of SEC teams is just plain weird to those of us old enough to remember the South West as a conference. As with Missouri and Texas A&M some years ago.

The 10 second runoff rule just removes so much of the game and excitement. That's terrible.

Pretty sure I saw a game end on a 10 second run off last year. Didn’t even get to have that one last Hail Mary type play

They are actually proud of this extra bs

Feels like these guys are really trying to sell us something we don't want....

As many have said, the change to the 10 second runoff change is terrible.

Crikey. As a Florida fan, I thought the shoe toss jokes would never stop. But that is nothing compared to the two number 3 jokes. It's never ending.

the SEC games are hard to watch because of their media timeouts

The 2 minute warning is cool cause it’s an extra timeout that can aid late game comebacks and such

He should be concerned about confirming catches, and pass interference! The SEC sucked upon this!

The game is no longer fun anymorre

SEC new rules changes. I never thought the SEC would stoop this low. Embarrassing. There’s no need for a 10 second run in this sport . No point in helmet technology service

What was the controversy with Utah's jerseys vs Florida?

Two minute warning belongs in the NFL not college football

Read my lips no extra media time outs 😂

Media timeouts are wild and idk why commercials are so long especially when it’s the same 5 commercials playing over and over

I'm sorry my football game is interrupting all your commercials.

Money in advertising changing rules is crazy

So the point of this video is to say that game play will not change. Broadcasters will change the outcome?

The only rules that needed to be changed are: pass interference going back to the old rule where it's at the spot of the foul even past 15 yards, and the definition of when the ball carrier is stopped, where he must be touched while down. Deliberate pass interference to limit a potential 50-yard pass completion into a 15-yard penalty is bush league. The Long Bomb used to be a much more frequent play under the old rules. A slippery playing surface should never be the leading tackler in a game.

Great video on changes we need to know about

Is there some bureaucratic leadership position that's in danger of job loss if they're not constantly changing the rules of the game?

so if you spike the ball with 8 seconds left the game is over ?

Yeah, I don't think the networks needed a guaranteed commercial break. wtf are you guys doing? We like a little bit more football in between the commercial breaks. Notice how they are changing the rules to benefit networks instead of the sport itself.

There is nothing more shady than a suit telling people that they’re changing the rules without give any explanation of “why”.

It’s early, I haven’t had my coffee, so I’m sure I’m not thinking about this right…. But what is stopping a team from intentionally false starting for the last two minutes of the game when they are up by 3 and just running the clock down to zero with the 10 seconds runoff rule

lets go back to old school where no offensive coordinator, the quarterback calls the plays only

The fact a rule change was made to benefit TV advertisers says so much about the world today...

So here’s a scenario. You are leading by 4 with 40 seconds left. You are on defense. The opposing team is on their 30 yard line. An offsides results in 10 second run off. Why not jump offsides 4 times and win the game?

I’m glad the media partners will be sure they get to play that last commercial break!

Media timeouts in the PAC-12 were egregious. I went to the USC Washington game last season and it felt like that 3:30 stoppage timer come up after every play.

Cool interview

Who came up with this 10 second runoff rule? Are these suggestions that come from the coaches or from a rules committee? On the surface it makes no sense

If commercials were mildly entertaining and appealed to the overwhelmingly male audience (like they used to) it might be tolerable...but since they are shoving DEI crap disguised as commercials it is hell watching a football game.

The ten-second runoff is good, but they need to add a new rule when there is a penalty, they should put the time elapsed during the play with the penalty put BACK on the clock. This will stop intentional offensive holding calls when a team is trying to run out the clock in a close game. Put the time BACK on the clock! It is only fair.

More timeouts. Just another reason to continue watching delayed broadcasts with commercials removed.

is this JUST for the SEC? If so, what happens if a non-conference game happens at an SEC home? and what happens if the SEC Team visits the NON-SEC team they are playing, home field?

So you're stopping the clock to play a commercial, but it's not a media timeout. Got it.

Hey John, can we get a bit of attention to the poor officiating in the SEC? I get it, the SEC wants to protect it's highest teams to get into the playoffs but the Bama vs TN game and many others, borderline insanity. No live play penalties for Bama vs TN? LOL All the muggings holdings in the second half was seen in Europe and laughed at. That is how we lose to teams like UM with the 73rd ranked passing offense. A fairly called game is how we prepare our teams to beat the UM's, OSU's etc. We aren't beating them if we aren't calling clear penalties. And I get, "don't be in a position to where a half dozen no calls determine the game"? But seriously, we have to stop playing favorites because we are hurting our own teams when we home game cook for a team.

I don't understand the point of the 10 sec runoff.

Hopefully John has trained his staff this off-season so they'll be better officials

LOL< I was just thinking about my Team Florida screwing the Pooch with the green stickers. Guess we'll see what that penalty will look come Week 1.

Now more pressure will be put on head coaches as far as clock management goes.

Yeah, This is going to get interesting.

Do helmets with a radio have the same safety rating as helmets without radio? The extra mass of the helmet with radio may put additional stress on a players neck when hit. How has this been addressed? What if al of the media timeouts have been used before the 2 minute warning in the 4th quarter? Each team is expecting a one-minute timeout to discuss strategy but if the media has used all its timeouts, they don't get that. Sounds unfair, doesn't it? I still don't understand why the clock only stops on 1st down in the last 2 minutes of a half? Is there a different game played then? There are other last-2-minute rules that I don't understand. Other than catering to the "media partners", what is the reasoning for these rules? Following up on that, why not have 1-sec runoff throughout the entire game, not just the last 2 minutes of a half? How about simplifying the game rather than making it more complicated?

How much did this cost Apple?

Imagine you put your heart and soul into making your own business, and scraped the money together to pay for a commercial after a football game. You turn on the TV, ready to watch the commercial time you purchased, and you find that the game has gone 40 minutes late; your commercial was seen by exactly nobody. Now, it might still play, after the hemmorhoid cream commercial with the smiling lady, but that's not what you wanted. That's why the 10-second runoff rules were put into play, so television stations could more accurately predict game times, and, therefore, keep the customers happy. Is it good for the game? I don't think so, but, without those paying customers, the games don't televise at all.

Whoever came up with the ten second run off should never be involved in football again

We're almost there boys

I’m more confused than I was before I watched this video

how is this fair to do a 10 second run-off on the defensive offsides where there is contact? Say the Offense is down by 4 or more and must get a TD, and they have 15 seconds left, why would the defense just not jump off sides and push someone down or do it on the edge and run to the QB to be unabated to the QB? just to cause a 10 second runoff? and seal the game up? I mean, honestly, if that is a thing, they will all do that. Kind of not fair to run time off on defensive penalties, probably will encourage them to happen. IMHO.

Quit regulating things that are not broken!!

Where is the revenue going…???

10 seconds runoff at incomplete pass is the WORST rule in history. If the defense is doing its job you will have 2-3 or more of them against one team in a game when time is critical. Awful, awful rule.

I have noticed several cheap shots as a player scores. Refs need to call those as penalties.

Someone please help the guy in the background put his headphones on 😢

I was reading about some of this last night I hadn’t heard about it. I haven’t watched any sports except the Olympics for 10 years. I used to watch everything. I miss the way it used to be it was fun and entertaining. The Olympics is the only sporting event where it’s mostly about guts, heart, and pride. Something missing from today’s sports. It’s not completely I know but generally it’s fun to watch. Now it’s all about money. And the players are anything but role models. Spoiled and entitled crybabies. Most of them.

Hmmm...,why is this giving me 'baseball pitch-clock' vibes? I can't quite put my finger on it. Of course, if you don't know what it is, you shouldn't put your finger on it.😊 Seriously, though,...where is this gonna stop? Stay tuned...🤔

Hard job my ass. When did any official lose their job for a mistake?

Refs need positive reinforcement too 😊

Even if it’s illegal pass it should lead to a 10 second runoff.

It is force-feeding of commercials to distract you from the game.

BOOOO! 2 minute warnings... NO!! College football is being ruined! This is not the NFL!

It is obvious the leaders of college football no longer care about the game itself.

All 3 rules discussed align with the NFL. And no, there is no 10 second runoff for incomplete. He literally listed multiple examples of illegal passes and concluded with “so basically anything incomplete.” Clearly a misspoke. No way the rules committee would ever allow it without it then becoming the talk of every sports show in America.

High school is the new college college is the new nfl so whats the nfl now?

Is this Shane Beamer cousin?? Uncanny

With no preseason, how do college referees train on the new rules? Do they work a lot of the intrasquad scrimmages to work on these new rules?

Interesting 😮😮😮

So this is the guy responsible for the joke that is SEC officiating? Okay, good to know.

Utah? Jersies? What did I miss.

A ref that squints can't make good calls

Leave football alone can you all just do that, just let the teams play and let the chips fall where they may

Someone is going to jam the coms of an opponent.

Thank you Michigan for making this happen this year! If it weren't for "Sign Stealing" (which is legal in college football, but the way), we would not have this! #GoBlue

at least change the rule not down unless you are touched get in the 21st century

Great... college football is made to be just like the NFL. Anyone see the problem here? Anyone?

Dayum,leave shit alone!!!

10 second run off is stupid in so many layers

Why doesn’t this dude look at the interviewer?

How can I become a Referee?

10 second runoff is the dumbest thing in history.

More Crazy and Insane stuff making the game worse.

Go back to what football used to be and let the quarter back make the calls. They used to be the stars of the game, not some dam coach in the stands. Make football great again.

Damn shame

Really the hardest job in America! What a lame comment!
