It's just bleach and soap is all it is
Lol

The player who goes down is out of the game until there's a change of possession before they can reenter.

 

[overseasorange2]

The player should be rushed to the hospital immediately for a complete physical, including a prostate exam. After all, we want to make sure he is ok

 

[JWilly]

Yes, or at least until a change of possession.

Why do you want to penalize players who have cramps or some legitimate short term injury that can be taped up or quickly dealt with? A rule like this could bite UT as well.

 

[Delmar]

The legislation hasn’t gotten off the ground yet. Kiffin told it to stay down.

 

[TitanicVolz]

I really don't see what the big fuss is about with the SEC.I personally think it's a simple fix and I've seen them do a litany of dumb stuff.You can't have what u see n the above clip least make it look semi-believable.Anyone with eyes and watches that can see what he's doing and how it kills the game in general much less the other offense.Gotta be some dumb politics or something behind it.

Not related but my brother sent me this today. funny



Doesn't look like Milton's picture though.

But to avoid a 3rd or 4th string player sent in to take the fall (literal), charge a timeout as well. Every freaking time it happens. It's football, not flop ball.

I pray that 3rd string dedenders are sent in. They will be abused by good offensive coordinators. And imo, we have a good one.

I figure it will end up being a 5 yard penalty against us.

Best I've heard. If a player is truly injured, even cramps, that player needs time to recover.

 

[camp_steveo]

All injuries requiring a stoppage must require independent medical evaluation.

That puts an end to it.

Something's got to be done. A change of possession could be as few as 1-2 plays. Flopping is cheating the offense.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Confiscate the offender's pocket presents for a number of plays. (TBD)

 

[supersmo18]

LOL
I remember being at that game. I was sitting about 20 rows up right on the 10 yard line, on that side of the field. Dobbs's and Kamara's body language at that flop was hilarious. That gif doesn't show it well, but both of them had the body language like WTF.

Our team used it several times this year also, even one of our OL blatantly did it to save us a timeout. One of our DE, Young maybe, counted our men and then went down holding his ankle, I legit thought he was hurt because no one else was around. Once, 2 of our men went down at the same time to save us a timeout, Taylor and someone else, then Taylor saw someone else was down and he jumped right back up. Every team uses this, and think about how you would feel if our starting LB and CB go down to save a timeout, and then both have to sit out a 15 play drive

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

Make the flopper lay in the same position for the next three plays.

 

[TitanicVolz]

I mean ocourse u see this here and there in the game,but anyone who doesn't believe it happens way way more against an offense like ours idk what to tell ya.That one play above didn't dictate the game outcome,but it's a great example of what we're arguing and want fixed.Technically it's isnt cheating but as with any issue u run across in life let's try to find find suitable solution cause it 100% effects the outcome of the game.

It's the simplest and easiest way to end the flopping.

 

[wmcovol]

Mustard bottles will continue until the flopping stops.

Some teams use it a lot more than others. It has to end somewhere. I’ll take the chance on us stopping if it prevents the more egregious users like Ole Miss from doing it. What they did is ridiculous.

 

[VOLtaism]

The refs can tell who is flopping, most of them are standing, in no sign of pain, and then fall to the ground after being signaled from the bench. Eject these individuals from the game and it all stops. I am sure the trainers who tot out and act like they are assisting them would appreciate it.
