Rufus69 Posted September 8, 2024 Report Share Posted September 8, 2024 Morning Gurus...... I have a REAL question for all you serious college football followers. It happened yesterday in the Tennessee Tech/Georgia game. Somebody decided to knock the 4th Qtr down to 10 minutes instead of the normal 15 minutes. I honestly did not know that was in the rules? I understand why it was done. I just didn't know you could do that? Hit me up with manna...guys. Rufus>> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted September 8, 2024 Report Share Posted September 8, 2024 I could be mistaken, but if the coaches and schools agree they can stop or shorten a college football game whenever they want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auburn did it last week but I think they cut it down to 8 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedZone Posted September 8, 2024 Report Share Posted September 8, 2024 You don't see it very often though. College football. The National Collegiate Athletic Association's mercy rule provides, "Any time during the game, the playing time of any remaining period or periods and the intermission between halves may be shortened by mutual agreement of the opposing head coaches and the referee."

Nolebull813 Posted September 8, 2024 Report Share Posted September 8, 2024 The fans should get an 8.3 percent refund for getting robbed out of 8.3 percent of the game they paid for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they went to state it would have been Div 3 or 4 so they weren’t considered a threat to any of the better Cali programs. Put some context to your post so they don’t look so skewed to your narrative. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm UGA and I'm paying you three quarters of a million dollars (or whatever it is) to come be my Week 1 or 2 sacrificial lamb, you will take every damn minute of that ass whoopin! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
