Related Topics: NCAA Football

Over the last several months, NCAA football has had several rule changes announced that will be implemented soon. Some of these rule changes will be off the field and will affect things like recruiting, the transfer portal, practices, or NIL, but six rule changes will affect games.

The three highest-profile changes to the NCAA football rule book are related to the game clock as clock stoppages, timeouts, and untimed downs were all affected.

First downs will no longer stop the clock for the offense until the final two minutes of each half.
