AAF

[whaler11]

I’m sure the games are going to be awful, but there are a lot of familiar names to college fans.

Love some of the rules changes.

4th and 12 from your 28 instead of onsides? Love it.

No kickoffs? Love it.

35 second clock

OT - first and goal from 10. Have to go for 2. Each team gets one possession then tie. I’d go with two possessions then tie.

Sky judge can be a good thing if they get it right.

Not sure I get why they want illegal defense other than they really want scoring and the QBs are an issue.

Give me the first three in the NFL tomorrow and probably the sky judge.

Now we just need the Elam ending in CBB and we’d be making some improvements.

[whaler11]

um whats the point of the sky god if he doesnt overturn the spot they missed by two yards

 

[noeynox]

Dayum. That's old school. No flag for that?

 

[noeynox]

Where are these games playing?

 

[whaler11]

Where are these games playing?

SA and SD on CBS.

 

[noeynox]

SA and SD on CBS.

What are SA and SD. Excuse my ignorance.

 

[noeynox]

Never mind thanks.

 

[whaler11]

Never mind thanks.

i wanted to see spurrier and orlando. cheated with only coverage of one game

 

[noeynox]

How the hell this league score a deal with CBS?

 

[noeynox]

I have to say after a few minutes, this is high level play and the tv production is good as well.

only first and title games on cbs broadcast. but tnt, cbs sports and nfl net have most of the games.

its flat out better than the current college basketball product

 

[JMick]

Had no idea this was on. The timing feels perfect. I needed more football after that super bowl

 

[uconnphil2016]

I honestly like it

 

[JMick]

I honestly like it

I don't love the coaching commentary. The audio gets a little messed up and it's distracting. I love hearing the play call in the huddle.

 

[uconnbill]

interesting so far. The play is okay, but it should improve some with more time. I know they have only been together for less than a month.

 

[whaler11]

this is a great league.

This is actually.....decent football. CBS might have something here.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Just tuned in after the latest Celtics collapse. First thing I notice is the Starter uniforms...

It's gonna need star power. That's the biggest lacking factor for me so far

the logos and team names are brutal.

which stars did you enjoy in uconn and rhode island

 

[JMick]

which stars did you enjoy in uconn and rhode island

pindell

 

[whaler11]

pindell

yeah nobody as good as pindell in this league. good point

 

[Buffett10]

It's gonna need star power. That's the biggest lacking factor for me so far

Trent Richardson plays tomorrow for Birmingham. Pretty big name

 

[UCFBfan]

I watched the first half. Was pretty decent. I liked being able to see a lot of college names I recognized. I believe Houston's former QB, Ward, was playing WR for San Antonio. Didn't realize Gavin Escobar was no longer on the Cowboys, or that he was a second round pick?!?

Overall, I'll give it a few watches. Like Whaler said, it's better than anything else on right now. I don't watch the NBA and many college bball games bore me.

Anyone know if they'll broadcast more then one game at a time? Are games only played on Saturday?
