This rule is so antiquated and should never happen in football, why do we even still do it this way? The team that wins the toss should simply choose the first or second half to receive and the other team picks their side to defend, that simple.
Agreed seem so unfair they get the ball both times.
Can someone explain this rule to me? I'm sure I've heard it before, but can't recall all the details.

The team that wins the coin toss can elect to kick, receive, or defer to the second half. If you choose to kick, instead of defer, you've used your turn to choose and the other team gets to choose to either kick or receive at the beginning of the second half.


I'm just a regular, everyday normal guy,
I can't afford a car, I use public transportation,
I don't mind, I read till I reach my destination,
sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book,
the money I save, this stuff is off the hook,

Starting to get away from Texas. If Texas's offense was just a bit better...

The fact that Texas is even in this game just shows even more how BYU dominated them.
