The collegiate rules committee led by Walter Camp has finished revising the 1899 football code. New rules limit offside penalties by keeping possession with the side in control prior to the foul and curb 20-yard rule abuses after teams first benefit. Sideline coaching penalties gain 10 yards, and any unfair acts by players or supporters incur 10-yard penalties.
