NCAA moving kickoffs to 30 yard-line.

One of the new rule changes for this year in College football is that the kickoffs have moved from the 35 yard-line, back to the 30 yard-line. This will hopefully promote more runback opportunities during each game and eliminate many of the touchbacks. As a fan, watching a kick return is one of the most chilling plays in football. 22 guys are charging full speed at one another, all but 1 are looking to destroy an opposing player.

There are advoactes for and against this rule change. Some cite that this only increases the risk for injury to players. Kickoff returns are arguably the most physically demanding play on a football field. Others favoring the change are looking forward to better starting field position for the offense and an anticipated increase in scoring.

Despite what happens, the return game should be more fun to watch this year. Bring out all of your speed-burners!
