Execs have discussed playoffs expansion, but there doesn't seem to be any urgency to move away from 4 teams.

"If it ain't broke"... It will take multiple years of either the B1G or SEc gaining more than 1 bid for there to be enough clamor to expand the playoffs to a more fair system...

So a rematch that produced the same results is an "unqualified success?"

Ok..

Well, it did earn everyone an extra $3 mill for hookers and blow.   I don't trust you if you aren't voting for hookers and blow.

That fair catch rule is so stupid-- essentially that if a kickoff is fair caught anywhere within the 25 yard line, the team gets it at the 25. Why even kickoff anymore?

So other teams can point and laugh when Kris Boyd tries to return it out of the endzone.

Big 12 is implementing screens on the sideline this year so referees in charge of the game can see the play for the first time during the league's use of replay. Gives ref input and clarity on the decision as well.

Greg Burks talking up the Big 12's new "collaborative" replay center. Basically, somebody in Irving will be watching replays live, too. IMO, that still won't address the many stoppages.

Wow, this one is interesting.   So if a block stops the hand, while the elbow is going forward, it wouldn't be a pass, but a fumble.   I like.

New Big 12 director of officiating Greg Burks leads off the annual rules presentation saying "there will be a crackdown on uniforms." Knees must be covered.

He said when asked why keep kickoffs, he says in case a team wants to onside. Still stupid.

I think the one that I heard that makes the most sense is make it like a 4th and 15 from the 35 or whatever. Either punt (which eliminates the 30 yard head of steam each side gets since everyone is on the LOS) or go for it like you would on an onside. Make the yardage needed whatever has an equiv. Success rate as an onside

I agree.

That being said, why not make the rule something like inside the 20 you can fair catch and get it at the 20. 

Endzone -> 25

Inside 20-> 20

The whole 25 yard line thing was meant to incentive the receiving team into fair catching. 

There has to be somewhat of a 'penalty' for doing it inside the field of play... right?

Wouldn't be surprised if a team broke 100 this year. This is huge if you are smart team. Only 75 yards guaranteed for a touchdown each drive.

So TCU and Tech girls can't count...and either TCU or fuckou girls don't know how to organize.

Also, not much talent there.  Only the first OSU and perhaps both KU.  Otherwise...eesh!

Does not meet HR's diversity goal.

Big 12 does not meet exceptional performance due to lack of achieving all goals.

Quality of work in the areas of all but one Texas teams is stellar. Still needs to work harder in achieving same results in colder climates and especially at religious affiliated schools.
