The only difference in NCAA ball are kicks that either (1) are caught before they hit the ground or (2) are touched by R on the field of play.

I don't think there's a whole lot of safety added by killing kicks immediately as they cross the planes of goal lines, but I agree this isn't going to change anytime soon.
