OT: UFL makes football fun

Overtime, or “OT,” is an opinion column series where The Collegian takes national sports headlines or polarizing topics and gives them a Butler-centric angle.

The United Football League (UFL) has a reputation for its unique rules, including three-point conversions, a fourth-and-15 play instead of an onside kick and a running clock after incomplete passes.

This upcoming season is only getting better with more rules being introduced, such as the ban of the controversial tush push, kickers becoming more involved and adopting a college rule, making the league more fun.

Sophomore exploratory business major Chase Snyder believes that the UFL banning the tush push is a good thing because it can draw more viewership and excitement to fourth-down and goal-line plays.
