Kickoffs in college football could look dramatically different in 2012. Citing safety concerns, the NCAA Football Rules Committee recommended today to move kickoffs and touchbacks up 5 yards each in hopes of fewer returns...

Where were these guys when we were struggling on kickoffs?   :dunno:

We could have saved a scholarship.

Let's just play two hand touch. It's much safer. :wall:

Seriously...I'd go for ko's at the 35 but touchbacks to the 25 seems too much reward for doing nothing.  Keep them at the 20.
