Clock management in College Football is terrible.
These teams also don't have a clue when to take a timeout either. 2 and 4 for ND and Boston College takes a time out on defense. Why would they do that??? I don't care where ND is on the field with a minute left.
Not as refined as NFL
And Boston College didn't throw just now to get a closer shot at a fg. They just ran the clock out.

College and NFL are both horrible managing the clock, when to go for 2, etc. I don't understand why teams don't hire guys from the engineering school that can run simulations and give them game in advice. Saban seems to be the only guy in CFB that hires a shit load of people just to do analytics.
It was never that bad and it shouldn't be. You have a head coach and an assistant in the booth and one should know what to do.Originally Posted by Mac4Lyfe

They're just doing a job kids. Don't let the trees get in the way of the forest.
Never forget, there is a forest.
NFL is no better. Anyone see the chargers on monday?
Don't forget when you're at a game there's a lot of distractions and it's called black out
Someone should make the decisions from home because anywhere at the stadium just distractions and they lose your train of thought a lot
Actually I think most head coaches can manage the clock fairly well.
It's when the player has $$$ out there the clock becomes an inigma
Most coaches are jocks, not statisticians and game theory experts
Mentally weak individuals that lack focusDon't forget when you're at a game there's a lot of distractions and it's called black out

Amazing how hard it is to recruit a good kicker. How can it be this difficult?
Poor butch jones
Memphis went for a fake FG with 2 minutes and change left in the game. They were up 3, should have kicked the FG, then bury UCLA with the kickoff. They lose the points and the ball, with only a FG needed to tie them. Luckily the Bruins chocked but it was obviously the wrong decision.
