Controversey brewing over alleged injury faking by Stephen F Austin Univ in their game with Texas A & M as they attempted to slow down the A & M offense's pace.

Heard the same thing late last year and early this year accused of happening against Houston. The Houston head coach earlier this week on a local radio station said it's something the rules committee would have to discuss, but I'm not sure what rules you could specifically change. They could adopt the NFL rule charging a timeout to the team of an injured player under two minutes, but this "problem" is something that would affect teams throughout the game.

In the words of Harry Hoo - "Amazing"
For every coach that thinks we got it wrong there's another that thinks we got it right.

Unless something happened to both players who suddenly went down that is not on the film this looks like they both are faking injury..... cramps perhaps?  Kind of looks like a replay of the World Cup

From fans at the game, this is only one of 3-4 times this happened during the game.
