football fields...?

Question

someone asked how long is a fottball field exactly. they do not believe a player can a the length of the field in a matter of seconds. so they were curious as to how long the field was exactly....anyone care to help me out

Answer 1

120 YARDS = 360 FEET

Answer 2

120 yards from the back of one endzone to the back of the other. In a game there is never any need to run 120, but at the most 110 yards if a kickoff or punt was returned from the very back of the endzone. A very fast player can run the 100 yard field in around 11-12 seconds. If you are talking about running the whole 120 yards it is probably around 15-17 seconds for a very fast player.

Answer 3

from goal line to goal line the field is 100 yds, from the back of the end zone to the back of the end zone the field s 120 yds. Athletes can run the length of a football field in seconds, the distance is the distance of one of the sprint events in track and field at the Olympics.

Answer 4

I'm not going to give you the same answer as everyone else...they're all right and you don't need to hear it again.
But, if they don't believe that a player can run that distance in seconds, try to break things down to him/her. Fill them in on training camp - the 40 yard dash time can make or break a recruit. Players have to have speed - period. Each position had different standards, of course, but they have to move.
