Destry Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Just don’t get it. Why in six man and not other classifications? Ok to score 80 but 6 man would have to do it in one half. What’s the difference? Someone explain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can’t stop the backups then that a You problem. Most schools pull their starters with a 50 point lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuleSlicks Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Usual mercy rule is a running clock. Is this used in 6 man? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No....if you get something like 45 points ahead, the game ends.....no matter if it's 1st quarter or 4th...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly. Unless something has changed, the 45 point "mercy rule" is from halftime through the rest of the game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoCo Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 How many games would the Carthage backups get to play if this was in affect at all levels? Great development time for the elite programs. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great development time for the elite programs. EXACTLY. This rule would hurt everyone, even the teams on the short end of the stick. Just because you’re down by 45+ doesn’t mean your players aren’t getting valuable playing time. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PelvisPresley Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 (edited) I hate to say this, but many times the reasons that the schools are getting hammered by 50-60 is because the team "quits" or starts to fight each other (blaming, lacking discipline, etc)...the very good team has to run three victory formation plays then punt from half-time on to not beat them by 75.
