    Since you can?t prove it, I?d say the biggest deterrent would be that the player is required to leave the playing field for 3 plays.

    I'd bump it up to the whole series. I mean seeing as how we're all concerned about player safety in college and the nfl(sarcasm).

    I like you're idea.

    It is a dead ball unsportsmanlike, auto first down or half the distance depending on field position. But if it?s chronic like it is at shithead U then it?s plainly a time for the conference to grow a pair. If you call bullshit, the officials know what?s going on, and flag that ass it will come to an end. But this is going to take the administrations to speak up to the conference office and the word to come down from there for that to happen.

    Edit to add it would have real teeth if the foul not only carried a 15 yard mark off and first down but also the offending player was ejected. That would bring it to a halt.

    This is a great example of when a teacher has to implement a rule that makes the whole classroom suffer when it's just one spoiled brat that never had a spanking to teach them at home.

    But his injury antics are all ok. There?s a reason Greg McElroy said ?This is a total lack of sportsmanship? regarding the phantom injuries.
    Just got in from the Thanksgiving trip, but watched the game last night. The head coach should be fined heavily - maybe $100K - for every momentum-killing fake injury. That's of any school, not just Ole Miss. Lane was actually chuckling at the last one that was meaningless. It's totally unethical, not just a lack of sportsmanship.

    I can see how they would get cramps. Considering how hot it was last night they easily got dehydrated. **

    That's correct. What they should do is assume it's fake, then require them (the offending team) to prove it's a real injury. Or perhaps make the player sit out a half.

    How do you prove it?

    No its not part of the game. It was an obvious fake, players looked to the sidelines for the signal to go down. Delay of game is the penalty. Just like faking the snap count, wrong too.

    Problem is, it is hard to prove someone is doing it but the replay showed it plain as day.

    Yes, and that's typical in the OM game, but the rest of the games the rule followed reasonably closely. The rule is sort of overlooked by fans in that game. I believe Kiffin says he found them irritating - well, they're supposed to be irritating. I'm not a huge fan of cowbells, but since we're allowed to use them, might as well make them useful.

    Where in a call that?s not reviewable is there a burden of prof? Is a football game not a court of law. The officiating crews know exactly what going on they just don?t have yet balls to make yet call.

    When it's convenient for the offending team, and pretty obvious - make them prove it's a real injury. Then remove the fine if it can be proven.

    You're right official's absolutely know what's going on. Heck everyone knows it. Kiffin over there on the sideline laughing about it. Maybe the conference will do something about it but I doubt it. I can see it becoming rampant throughout the conference now that one team is blatantly abusing it.

    If a player is in his stance then falls to the turf that should be an unsportsmanlike penalty plus a charged timeout. Nothing has to be proven. If it happens you get penalized.

    If one is to levy fines and penalties, one must be able to prove. Leveraging penalties anytime a player falls to the turf is not acceptable in a physical game. Cramps do happen. I see this tactic all the time in soccer, too. It sucks, but you can?t prove that a player is or isn?t cramping. Therefore, it is unenforceable, and actions must be taken to deter the behavior.
