Why don't CFB coaches take a knee? Why is it that some CFB coaches don't like to take a knee when victory is clear? There are numerous examples - one was with Florida with the ball at the South Carolina 10...take a knee twice, game is over. yet they run the ball until the game clock is below the play clock and then the coach runs onto the field. It makes no sense. It isn't a matter of trying to cover the spread for the alumni otherwise they wouldn't run a dive play. It also can't be their thinking that more points equals higher chance of a better ranking otherwise they'd throw the ball too. So...it makes no sense to me. Either throw and try to score .... or kneel. Why run a dive play?
