I'm not sure one game will do it, but this might be an indictment of sorts on the heavy portal approach to building a team. The first team they came up against with a pulse punched them in the mouth. Can a team full of players who already bolted from one program stay together if the season begins to go south?

Truth be told, even though UK beat them up at the LOS all day, they still needed a 4th and 7 conversion and a fluke TD to win. Then Ole Miss had the ball well into UK territory and had to settle for a 51 yd FG try. Ole Miss went out of their way to gift this game to Kentucky.

Ole Miss also converted a 4th and seven and lost a fumble that should have ended the game but a Kentucky lineman was offsides. Truth is Kentucky looks good in this game and going back to the Georgia game. Not sure what happened when they played USC but they look like the third best team we will play this season to me.

He did? They were saying he was kicking butt but in fairness I was just listening and not watching. I think you are right which makes me feel better. Ole Miss got 5 sacks and 11 TFLs. This is where I like being wrong.

But that's the point right? Protect the players, focus on player health.

Maybe you let them come back if team takes a timeout.

My bet is that if they would stop allowing the teams/coaches to huddle and substitute while the "injury" is tended to by medical staff unless a time out is called, then the frequency of this problem is greatly reduced.

Post that rule please.

Rule 3.3.5f

If the player injury is the only reason for stopping the clock (other than his or a teammate's helmet coming off, Rule 3-3-9) with less than one minute in the half, the opponent has the option of a 10-second runoff.

Thanks, lost my computer with rulebook links.

If they can legislate that they can beef it up to fix more issues. Maybe start with requiring a team timeout starting with the second incident each half if the player wants to re-enter before 5 clock minutes expire. Real injuries have ZERO impact. Could possibly be abused with designated floppers, but would help. Want to bring your star back early, you can ELECT to call the timeout. Maybe exclude contacted QB and ball carrier and any instance where both teams have a player down. Can be tweaked.

I am sure they will get better at disguising them, but instances where the Coach or other player is caught instructing a player to go down, that should be an unsportsmanlike penalty. Worse than taunting. Replay confirmed type call, which can be reviewed during dead ball. Some penalty or fine by league office if missed real time. Cannot continue with a blind eye.

A start anyway.

I didn't know 'the SIP' is a term for Mississippi. Googled it.
I imagined something more like a goofy slang about what alcoholic housewives call a wine tasting where they're all getting loaded.

Some marketing genius tried calling Atlanta "the A" for awhile until they started using it in sentences like "It's hot and sweaty in the A this week." and "Find out what what's up in the A today."
