Why do people continue to ask this question?!

I believe the defenders are smart enough to know they're supposed to stop running when they cross the goal line, and not continue into the brick wall out the back of the end zone.

Well, at least the Northwestern kids are smart enough to know this, I'm not positive about Zooker's boys.

Because of Jim Marshall, back when the NFL had posts on the goal lines?

Stupidest.Idea.Ever.

Conversation in B10 office:
Cliff:"Hey Bob - SEC seems to have all the attention recently with the whole AuburnGate thing."
Bob:"Yeah - I know, Cliff."
Cliff:"What can we do?"
Dudley:"I have an idea."
Cliff:"Oh HELL no - sit the hell back down and lick the envelopes, Dud. Last time you had an idea, we were facing 3-5 in the pen."
Dudley:"No, really - I have a good one this time."
Bob:"Dudley - last time you had a good idea, it ran down your leg."
Dudley:"No - seriously - what about Northwestern and Illinois playing at Wrigley?"
Cliff:"see? told ya - you can't play football at Wrigley - it ain't big enough!"
Dudley:"Yeah - but we can squeeze it in. What about a football version of half-court hoops?"
Bob:"Dudley, that is THE stupidest thing I have EVER heard. Lemme call the Conference Commish - if THAT doesn't get us back in the news nothing will"
Cliff:"Yeah - we can make 'em switch sides whenever possession changes. We'll even do a private closed-to-the-world coin flip here in the office."
Bob:"This shit is SO stupid, we're GUARANTEED headlines for a week. WAIT! Let's ACT like it'll be OK, and then pop the half-court shit to the press the day before the game!"
Cliff:"BOB - YOU DA MAN!"

Fast Forward to November 19, 2010:

"According to a statement issued by the Big Ten, Cliff, Bob, and Dudley, the following changes will be made:

•All offensive plays will head toward the west end zone, including all extra points and all overtime possessions.
•All kickoffs will be kicked toward the east end zone.
•After every change of possession, the ball will be repositioned for the offense to head toward the west end zone.
• As a result of a Double-Stuf Oreo Cookie "coin toss" held by the conference office Friday morning, Illinois will occupy the west team bench in the first half and Northwestern will occupy the west team bench in the second half and for all overtime periods.
• Field goals that rebound back THROUGH the uprights will get 2 additional points added.
• Balls deflecting from light posts, walls, and sideline players noggins are in-play.
• Kickoffs will be run with the kicker having one arm tied behind his back.
• Quarterbacks must NOT throw passes longer than 25 yards. Penalty is 10 yards, and loss of down.
• If a player runs through the end zone and runs into the wall, he will be ejected for flagrant stupidity.
• Field will be wet down, and 6 million pounds of cherry Jello will be put down to slow play.
• Because of the red Jello in the field of play, whip cream will be used to mark yard lines.
• Because of Jello and whip cream, there will be a 15 second timeout after every play to replace said Jello and whip cream yard line markings.
• Any player caught eating the Jello or whip cream, will be guilty of unsportmanlike conduct, which will be a 15 yard penalty.
• Any player caught throwing Jello or whip cream at an opposing player, will be guilty of a flagrant foul, with a 15 yard penalty, and ejection. If opposing player had a visor, there will be no ejection.
• Halftime will include both teams' cheerleaders having a jello-n-cream wrestling match. Whichever team's cheerleading squad wins, that team will have the football to open the 2nd half. "


New rule: Big Ten can NEVER criticize another conference.

EVER!
