The kickoff could soon be a thing of the past.
According to Dennis Dodd of CBS, the American Football Coaches Association board of trustees and the NCAA Division I Football Oversight Committee have had “preliminary discussions” about removing kickoffs from college football games. Player safety is the source of the “informal talks,” Dodd’s report says.
Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby is the chairman of the oversight committee. He referred to the kickoff as “the most dangerous play in the game.” Still, any potential change is still a ways away.
From CBS:

Both entities are reviewing injury data to gauge the impact of kickoffs. Preliminary indications are that injuries occur at a higher rate on kickoffs, according to sources.

Any rules change probably won’t come until after the 2017 season. Eliminating kickoffs has not yet been a discussion for the NCAA rules committee, according to its secretary-rules editor Rogers Redding.

However, rules changes typically bubble up to the committee from coaches and administrators. The AFCA acts in an advisory role to the NCAA rules committee. The oversight committee vets any changes by the rules committee before approving them.

I'm down. No kickoffs and no extra point kicks. You have to run/pass it in for the extra point.

[pavyracer]

Might as well eliminate the touchdowns and made it illegal to use hands and call it soccer.

[jjgold]

How about punts were going to get rid of them to?

[The Giant]

The sport will be eliminated within 20 years.

We'll finally be able to go to church on Sundays.

[recon1]

Soccer will be the world sport.

[TheMoneyShot]

No tackling. Flag only. Could be False Flags. I'll keep you posted.

[brooks85]

they should just have some gladiator/ninja warrior-like obstacles around the sidelines for players from opposing teams to compete for possessions. Obviously for first kickoff of the game it is jousting at centerfield.


Half-time is a round of assault with opposing teams back-up QBs throwing footballs instead of shooting tennis balls.

just as easy to get hurt on regular play vs a kickoff

just ban the game

[M.W.]

Any truth to the rumor that Clemson is behind this proposal?

Yup. No one likes punts anyway.

Instead of OT the NFL can enact a dancing segment and have a panel of impartial judges score the players routines from league offices. That way the home team numbers don't get too big an advantage.

Why when someone gets hurt they all seem to forget that dotted line we all have signed since grade school....that stated....."SERIOUS INJURY or even DEATH can occur" its funny.....as old as I am my dad had the same paperwork to sign in school....nothing has changed other than we want excuses for everything. This is a horrible idea and every change that has been made since the late 90s has made this an embarrassment to all of us that have played the game. We all have choices in life....if you dont want to participate in a kickoff...DONT there is always someone on that bench that is wanting to play harder than the other guy if you are a true athlete!

My rant is over.

[Sledge187]

As a fan I hate this....as a father of a college athlete, I love the idea of no kickoff. It's the most violent part of the game.

[ZINISTER]

Played flag football for too many years! It was full contact flag(USFTL). We had kick offs and extra points with NO pads or helmet. You pucies want to put helmets on pucie soccer players. lol This country is a joke!!! Just another step towards the pucie America we have created. Good job you nutless focks that won't stand up and be men. We have become the prisoners of the weak liberals. To late to put a stop to the momentum they have established. TRUMP wants us to toughen up! But, we will see old dusty pucie Hillary in office. Can't say I blame Bill for sticking it in that other ho. My shyt wouldn't get up for that nasty biotch either. I want to push for helmets while driving our cars. Helmets for our wives during sex. Most of ya don't have to worry about driven her head through the wall. Your to big a pucies to hit that shyt like an animal. Carry on acting like men. Most of you younger kids are MALES not MEN. Know the difference. Keep texting and getting that fat ass with no muscle tone to speak of.

[jjgold]

They got to be careful not to kill the game

Sports is a fine line to lose viewers

[pavyracer]

Ban kickoffs, punts, field goals in football but keep guns.

There is a reason the rest of the world is laughing at us.

So then no more onside kicks?

[Mr KLC]

Have been losing interest in football more and more anyway. Time for baseball to take the bull by the horns, and become the National Pastime again.

[VeggieDog]

The sport will be eliminated within 20 years.

We'll finally be able to go to church on Sundays.

The only way I'll go to church is if I can bet on the over/under on how long the service will last.

[Demonata]

This would kill the sport. That would mean if you had the lead by more than 9 and other team scores no way to cone back
