If you are gassed, go down. The ref doesn't ask if you are hurt, he calls TO, you get your breath and go back in. The other option is to chase Tyree or the other guy whose name escapes me while GASSED, because any other way just wouldn't be right??? Sheesh. Nothing wrong there, ask coach Cornpone.

Technically, "being gassed" is not something that a ref allows a timeout for. Being injured is what is supposed to stop play, and not being tired or too slow to get off the field. Western's offense (and basically all up-tempo teams) is built to go fast and to get in a rhythm and catch the opposition either out of position because they are trying to substitute or "too gassed" to make a play.
That has nothing to do with us giving up a bunch of big plays and 28 points on defense, and I am not going to say that the score would have been significantly different. But saying referees should allow a team to have the equivalent of a timeout every time they are tired is a bit ludicrous. Not sure you thought that through before posting.

So if it's fair for someone who is "gassed" to drop down and delay the game purposefully, then would it also be fair for the other team to remember that guys number, and to absolutely bust his a#s at the next available opportunity? That way he'd be certain to get a break and be able to catch his breath, while being helped off the field as your coach pats him on the back for doing such a great job.
I like it, I think.

I agree with that. It is football and a contact sport. I truly believe that the NCAA is going to put some rules around players faking injuries as a strategy to slow down no huddle offenses. Everybody in the stadium knew what they were doing but there is no way to prove that the kid is being told to fake an injury by his coach. If a rule is made that you have to sit out a quarter, then that crap will stop. GO CATS!!!

Your exact words were "if you are gassed, go down. The ref doesn't ask if you are hurt, he calls TO, you get your breath and go back in". Our offense is built on making you tired, and is hindered when the other team is given "free" TOs to "get their breath". That is what you said.
