7th grade football
Had two interesting things in our 82-minute game today (9 minute quarters):
(1) We actually called helping the runner. A lineman picked a very small runner up as he was being tackled and carried him for about 5 yards. Then he picked him up again. 3 flags down.
The coach wanted an explanation on why this was different than "pushing the pile." I managed to stop laughing in time to give him an explanation.
(2) We had IG with 11 seconds left in the half with A having no timeouts left. I wound the clock on the ready. Just talked about that one here and elsewhere - thought it was interesting the situation would come up today.
Too many "modified" rules for me...
