Oregon football coach Dan Lanning effectively confirmed Monday that the Ducks' 12-men on the field penalty late in a win vs Ohio State was intentional

The loophole that Oregon used to close out a win against Ohio State won’t be an option in the future. The NCAA issued a rules interpretation on Wednesday advising officials how to handle a too many men on the field penalty in the final two minutes of a game.

The Oregon Ducks’ leash on beating the rulebook has run out after coach Dan Lanning exploited a loophole regarding 12 men on the field penalties to help down Ohio State. NCAA secretary-rules editor Steve Shaw announced in a statement that an amendment would be made to the rulebook to “take away any gain for the defense” in the event that the defense has too many players on the field in the last two minutes of either half.
