NCAA has made a point to hack players who approve the injuries. If a player on the field presents an injury after the ball is noticed for the next play, this player’s team will be charged with a time -tim. If the team does not have a time-out, the team will be evaluated by a 5-yard game delay.
In this case, McAulay disagreed with the Big 12 conference officials.
“The big 12 times are reduced from inappropriately over the official relatively new injuries. Again, this player was clearly wounded at the end of the performance, and yet the crime was still accused,” he wrote on X.

“What is worse, the re -playback official can communicate on the field of trauma and did not say that it was long before the ball was noticed.”
Macalay did the same while playing last weekend between Kansas and Iowa.
“We already have an example of why I expressed concern that this rule would unfairly punished a team that has done nothing wrong. This player is clearly injured, and yet, because he went down after the ball was noticed, they were accused by the time,” he wrote. “Even worse, it seems, he demonstrated that he was injured before the ball was noticed.
“This is not a good rule.”
Georgia Tech won the game, 27-20.
