When the NCAA was in the process of adopting new safety rules for college football involving players losing their helmets, University of Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema had somebody go back and look at all of the Badgers? plays last season. According to the NCAA, helmets came off an average of twice per game, which added up to more than 200 times during the season. Bielema said some teams had helmets come off 30 or 40 times in a season.
