Yes, NF rules are supposed to be more simplistic for the ease of "part-time" officials. The problem that it causes is a high school ref trying to switch to NCAA on Saturday afternoons just after doing a high school game the night before. I prime example is blowing a punt dead in the end zone on Friday (correct) and on Saturday (inadvertant whistle, K can return out of the EZ). I believe that MA and TX are the only states to use NCAA rules for high school.
