You had to push the ball past a line ( I believe it was the 28 ft line ) on the offense every so often to keep teams from stalling.

What was the name of that line or the name of the violation if you didn't do it?
The rule was the lack of action rule. It went away about 1990. I don't remember what we called the line, though.
