When CP ran the ball from the TB position on our last drive, he ran out of bounds at 7:17. It was a 1st down. They set the sticks and ran the clock.
The next play got off at 6:49. That's 28 seconds.

On MSU ensuing drive, at 2:31, LPerkins ran around the left end for a 1st down. He ran out of bounds at 2:26. They set the sticks and ran the clock.
The next play started at 1:56. That another 28 seconds.

Have the rules changed? If not, there's 56 seconds left in the game.

Yes, there was home cooking, holy crap MSU was never called for holding when they were tackling our Dlinemen. BUT officiating was not why we lost this game.

The clock only stops on out of bounds plays inside of the last 2 minutes of each half.

The clock only stops while they set the ball after 1st downs are picked up. Been that way for as long as I can remember.

Recent changes (4-5 year ago) have made it so the clock only completely stops when the player goes out of bounds with under 2 min in each half.

You're missing the point. We lost because our D is bad.
The announcers and ESPN spotters and producers saw that the clock was running.
It seemed to me that perhaps the rules had changed becauase the announcers didn't say anything.
The game clock was on the screen. Everyone could see it.
Have the rules changed?

We got beat tonight, fair and square. If a team holds, you hold them more. If a team cheats, you cheat more. That's the only way to compete in the mighty SEC. Thanks to the refs for not calling the TIME OUT that Dooley wanted on the last TD, or we would have probably just scored 3 points; once this coaching staff out thought themselves ;/ No excuses, cause excuses just get you beat in the SEC.

Learn the rules before you whine. Since 2008, the clock starts once the ball is set for play after an out-of-bounds stoppage. Exception is in the final two minutes of each half - then the clock starts on the snap. :loco:

Yes, the rule changed a couple of years ago to speed up the game. The clock starts at the ready for play signal on out of bounds plays except the final 2 minutes of a half.

The clock starts on the ready to play signal when you go out of bounds unless it is under 2 minutes before halftime or the end of the game.

Thank you. What confuses is last week in the LSU-UF game, Gillislee took extra effort not to run out of bounds at the end (ie. the last 2 min).
