I wonder when a major incident is going to take place - like the narrow space Michigan gives the visiting band, trapped between the sideline and a brick wall. One of their receivers dove into the OSU band a few years back, but no one was hurt.

A few years back a WR from a visiting team ran into a piece of machinery used by the grounds keepers and suffered a compound fracture. The machine was less than ten yards from the end zone.

I'm not an engineer but from a layman's perspective, the only workable solution seems to be to tear it down.

Just can't have the injury risk.

I think you're the one without a clue. It wasn't a fluke UNC was about to tie it and led most of the game. You take the fucking point and go to OT where you have homefield advantage and ride that momentum. Unless you have a near-perfect playcall for 2, go to OT at home

Personally, I think that you don't put the ball in the hands of a runner as slow as the UNC QB. In Field's hands, I think it's a good call. He can get to the edge. In the hands of UNC's truck driver bodied QB, nope.

Pure genius. I am in awe of your ability to analyze the situation and produce a sound solution in such a small timeframe.

I am an engineer, and your solution is good, but incomplete.

Basic statics and strength of materials analysis makes it clear that the ground must be well salted
