I think back in 2013 when Franklin came back and almost knocked off Mount Union in the debut of coach Vince Kehres there was a penalty where Mount was called for having two identical numbers on the field. If it can happen to them it could happen to anyone.

Correct.   If my memory is working it wiped out an interception.

I remember it being on special teams.  Duplicate #s usually are one offensive and one defensive player.  But special teams can be a combination of both, thus the error.

Going to 3 digits eliminates the problem and confusion ;)

The problem would not be solved by Three Digits IMO.  The players WANT to wear the Single Digit #s.  Thus you have and Offensive and Defensive player wearing the same #.  You don't see many guys fighting over numbers like 37 or 61.

Used to be OL/DL wore the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 90s.  Now you see more of them wearing lower numbers.

I don't think Mount Union Dresses more than 99, even for home games.

I think they could dress 40 and still have a  +42 Margin of victory avg for the season.
