I would have no problem reverting back to the NF 1995 timing rule.
It's my personal opinion that high school games are taking longer now because of the passing game. Many of the old school traditional run oriented teams have added more pass plays to their playbooks. That means more clock stoppages due to incompletions. In my game last night, the combined pass stats were 11 of 38 for both teams for 272 yards. Both teams have been grind it out teams in the past years.
I wonder how that national average time was obtained. I know of no one in my area of the state who provides game length information nor was asked too up the line. We're not asked to keep that information as officials.
