The NCAA Football Rules Committee announced that it has proposed rule changes over targeting, low blocks outside of the tackle box, and faking injuries.
Sources told Sports Illustrated’s Ross Dellenger earlier this week that the rule changes would be proposed during the committee meeting on Friday.
The rule change regarding targeting would allow conferences to appeal targeting calls that were made in the second half of games to make a determination as to whether or not a player has to sit out the first half of the following game.
With the current rules, there is a “carryover” rule in which a player who commits a targeting penalty in the second half of a game has to sit out the first half the following week.
