I can't agree with you. Starting on the snap after a change of possession has added 10-15 minutes. 3 minute warmup has added 3 more.

Proof: JV games here use 12 minutes quarters but we use the old timing rules. Most JV games last 2 hours or less.

We use the new timing rules, but most conferences play 10 minute quarters. About 2 hour games then, too.

That's how we do it, and the game lengths are the same; normally under two hours.
