Possible cancellation on Miami O game??

[stolidog]

Please say it isn't so - because of high winds according to ESPN... a real possibility - Sh*t

when is the game official in football? 55 minutes?

 

[stolidog]

55 minutes - but if Marshall keeps fumbling and Miami keeps scoring, they will probably give more consideration to cancelling

i know this sucks! just 1 more minute!!

 

[primetime21+]

we will have to wait till after the commercial. if they dont call it then, the game iwll go 55 minutes

For the first time tonight, I am rooting for Marshall !! Come on, THundering Herd, two first downs on the ground!!!

 

[primetime21+]

there you go, 55 minutes just passed. that would have sucked!

The idiot Miami-Ohio coach didn't exactly help the game finish quickly when he has his star QB still in the game throwing 50 yard bombs when he's ahead 38-6.

Related Question:
I know that you need 55 minutes for official game for gambling purposes, but how much of 2nd half needs to be played for 2nd half wagers to be valid?

bulldog- I know the rules may vary depending on the sports book. I just checked the rules where I have one of my accounts and it states that at least 25 minutes of the second half must be played for second half wagers to have action so that would make it the same as the 55 minute rule for the entire game.

Thanks for info, soccerbob. I thought maybe they would go by a percentage thing and say you needed 27.5 minutes of 2nd half. I'm getting paranoid ever since that UNLV/Whisky game last season!
