That is why I am a back judge, I have more time to figure out how to get out of the way.

Did you see that the Big12 is going to experiment with an 8th official? They're going to try having a usual umpire AND a second guy in the backfield. Will he be called the U2?

Hm, what to call that guy? Here are some options.

Front judge
Back Linesman
Schmeferee
The Ocho

I'm sure you can come up with a few more.
