NCAA Equipment regs- players wearing shorts

[wilburthegoose]

Watching the PAC-12 championship game. Washington #55 is a very good left tackle.

55 is essentially wearing shorts and a jersey that goes down to the bottom of his ribs. Are these compliant with NCAA rules?

They aren’t in the NFL or in high school.

If there's still a rule about pants covering the knees and knee pads must be worn over the knees, The NCAA doesn't enforce it.

Makes for a pain in the butt to enforce the rule at the HS level. NFHS wants us to enforce the knee pad rule and the kids want to look like the guys on Saturday.

The players are starting to look stupid at the NCAA level, IMO.
