The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 2 Share Posted Wednesday at 07:26 PM At this point how many coaches on the brink of defeat are going to start contemplating "What would Lanning do?". A dodgeball kickoff and a rule technicality in the same game helped him take down the supposed team of the decade. I'm sure the recruits out there are paying close attention. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDuck Moderator No. 3 Share Posted Wednesday at 07:31 PM NCAA closes loophole for illegal substitution after Oregon 12-man penalty vs. Ohio State The NCAA has issued a new rules interpretation following a highly controversial tactic used by Oregon in a narrow win over Ohio State this weekend. The NCAA issued the following ruling to curb the loophole Oregon exploited against Ohio State: “After the Two-Minute Timeout in either half, if the defense commits a substitution foul and 12 or more players are on the field and participate in a down, officials will penalize the defense for the foul and at the option of the offended team, reset the game clock back to the time displayed at the snap. “The game clock will then restart on the next snap. If the 12th defender was attempting to exit but was still on the field at the snap and had no influence on the play, then the normal substitution penalty would be enforced with no clock adjustment.” NCAA closes loophole for illegal substitution after Oregon 12-man penalty vs. Ohio State - On3 WWW.ON3.COM The NCAA has issued a rules interpretation following a controversial 12 men on the field penalty by Oregon against Ohio... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that everybody knows about it, the coach or QB can call an immediate timeout if he sees 12 players on defense in that situation. The ref will then penalize the defense with no time off the clock. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is going to be keyed into this situation and this wasn't going to be a problem again this season. It wasn't a problem the first time around either. But hey... take pride everyone. OUR coach is that good that they changed a rule BECAUSE of him. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would Ohio State want to burn their final timeout for a 5 yard penalty, even if it stopped the clock? Like someone said, you place the extra defender as far away from the play as possible (on the opposite side of the field from the team's bench) and have them "run off the field" without participating in the play. No time added back to the clock. The NCAA did not close a loophole, they are just requiring coaches to take an extra step...

noDucknewby No. 13 Share Posted Wednesday at 09:36 PM (edited) But of course it's still perfectly legal to purposely take a delay of game to give the punter more room, or to take an intentional safety to run out the clock. Not to mention all the times a beaten DB intentionally commits pass interference to save a TD. For better or for worse, intentional penalties are part of the game. It's kind of funny though, even in the few instances that this situation actually arises going forward, you have to concede the five yards and make damn sure you get a stop. It could easily have backfired on DL if Chip would have run the ball and gained even a couple of yards. It's a risky move.

DuckFan93 No. 16 Share Posted Wednesday at 09:58 PM Well, I guess it's a fair change - the non-offending side (victim) shouldn't have to lose anything. So it makes sense that it's treated like an offside penalty. Since the rule change affects everyone, who knows if it may yet benefit OBD sometime this long season, as I see us as "tOSU" for many of our oppponents.

It would be interesting to see what Oregon's success rate under Lanning and Stein is on 4th and 2 and 4th and 3 (and the points gained/lost). I had no issue with Chip going for it, most of the time, because he seemed to convert nearly 100% of the time. That is not the case with Lanning and Stein.

Exactly! Oregon fans were saying the same thing last year, when Bo Nix missed an open receiver or two. Anything can happen when you take the chance on 4th down, especially when you pass the ball (e.g., tipped ball at LOS, bad pass, missed read, a drop). A run is the safer option, IMO, if you are going to go for it on 4th and short, and you don't have to just pound it up the middle...

Yes, the 12th man ploy was great and call it genius if you want. But DL still needs to learn when to take the FG. And when it's 4th and 2 at midfield you might want to punt, pin them deep and rely on your defense to get the offense a short field. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely loved the call Kalen DeBoer made on 4th down against WSU last year to save their season. Fake zone read with a reverse. It probably wouldn't be effective near the goal line, but it was a very successful play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
