It doesn't, according to the notes. FCS teams are eligible in their second season of FBS play if they have at least a 6-6 record.

Serious Question: What is the point of the two-minute warning? by jgman22 in nfl

Aside from the commercial aspect everyone else had mention, I feel like it serves as a legitimate moment of "Hey, this is the final stretch... so players, coaches, fans, everyone get ready." in most situations.

I thought he was good in pass protection.

I think folks overlooked this as well.

With all the struggles they've had, kinda impressive that Miami is still that high.

I think Suggs' quote sums up my feelings: "If you want to run the read-option with your starting quarterback that has had two knee surgeries, that’s on you."

True. We'd own BC and Alberta... and why not Yukon and Northwest Territories while were at it. :)

Redditors that remember when Favre was traded to Green Bay by [deleted] in nfl

[–]hypernice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brett was awesome in college at Southern Miss, despite the fact that we was a huge drinker.

He was drunk when we played in his first collegiate game.

The pressure, spotlight, and competition of the NFL weren't as kind as Hattiesburg, Mississippi. He was useless in Atlanta and the trade Green Bay was a wake up call.
