UFL Rule changes


Here is a link to the Wikipedia article on the UFL. One notable aspect is the rule difference between the NFL and the UFL.


Here's a primer:
  1. No tuck rule.

  2. Touchdown celebrations will occur in the endzone and the bench area only

  3. Fumbling out of the endzone - fumble will be placed at the spot of the fumble

  4. Intentional Grounding - is not a penalty

  5. Instant Replay - all reviews are done upstairs and the official only has 90 seconds to review (I think this is how college does it?)

  6. Overtime - both teams guaranteed a possession, like college. No sudden death. I don't know if I like this or not. I love Sudden Death games, but then I love the dramatic buildup of a 2, 3 or 4 overtime game as well.

Very interesting. I think I love it!
