What I would like to see in football is the 4-point field goal attempt. Attempts where the PLS (Point of Last Scrimmage) is beyond a certain spot would be worth 4 points instead of 3: - In Canadian football, this could be the 45-yard line
- In American football, this could be the 35-yard line
This would make for exciting endings too. Down by 7, two field goals could tie the game! |
And they'd then have to change the NFHS rules cause a long, missed FG that reaches the goal line is merely a touchback.
