I sort of understand the spirit of the rule, but you can certainly make the case that for an un-helmeted player to simply stop and stand still in the middle of play is more unsafe.

Yeah, I understand it and wasn't upset with the call, but it seems a bit subjective.  How do you judge if a an o-lineman stops participating in the play?  He'll get hurt if he just lets up.  And your example of an RB.  He's just supposed to stop running?

Probably no more subjective than pass interference - yes, it is subjective and up to the interpretation of the ref.

Doesn't matter what the running back does if his helmet comes off, the play is whistled dead at that point.

Ice says Bethel looking a little low coming in at #11 this week. Should be higher IIBHO.

I was thinking the same thing, especially considering SJU is at 5 and Bethel beat them plus Concordia gave SJU a close game while Bethel dominated Concordia.

Yes, I understand that this is how it is supposed to work, but in reality, the entire play doesn't stop when the helmet is popped, most players continue as if nothing happened for a couple of seconds, so if the un-helmeted player simply stops, they'd be extremely vulnerable.  This is a rule that makes sense on paper, but in execution, arguably has the potential to make the un-helmeted player more unsafe rather than less.

I guess I need to step up my game!

I think you might be the answer to your own question.

Obviously the angle of the pic, but this looks like a college team playing a middle school team 

This one? Gotta be all angle.



Piper roster has guy at 5-11, 190.

I did enjoy the Charlie Carr clip of the 5-5 guy vs. Larson.

Hey I thought you guys had thicker skin.... but maybe you got hit too many times in the head when you played Crown.

There has never been anyone in the history of the world who was actually 5'11" who didn't list themselves as 6 foot, this guy is definitely 5'9".

I was 6'1" in high school and the football coaches listed me at 6'3" on the football program. They justified it as "helmet height" when I protested.

Hey, we can't be that far away from the first regional rankings, right? Maybe 2-3 weeks?
