When I was a kid playing playground football, we had a rule which we called "losers walk." The rule was that if a team gave up a touchdown, then they were the ones who had to walk all the way to the other side of the field to receive the subsequent kickoff (which was actually a throw and not a kick but you get the idea). So if you gave up a touchdown then that meant that when you got the ball back on offense, you would be heading in the same direction as the team that had just scored.
Needless to say that is not how they do it in organized football. Until now.
Due to safety concerns resulting from the genius decision to play football at Wrigley Field (???), the Big 10 has announced that tomorrow's game pitting Northwestern against Illinois shall make use of only one end zone. That's right. No matter who has the ball, that team will head towards the west end zone.
And thus they have indeed created a situation where after each touchdown, the losers walk. :laugh2: :laugh1:
