Change 1 rule for OhioSt? Why not these 5 rules too?

Sports rules cut both ways. If the construction of a rule is "unfair" for one team, it's equally fair or unfair to the opponent.
Case in point:
When 2024 Georgia lost, did they complain about refs or rules? Nope.
When 2024 Alabama lost, did they complain about refs or rules? Nope.
When Tennessee lost, did they complain about refs or rules? Nope.
Those teams stayed focused and kept working — Period, full stop.
Yet here's Ohio State all week, complaining about rules and refs — even pressuring the NCAA for a mid-season rule change.
If one rule is changing to cover for Ohio State consistently being out-coached in big games, why stop there? — Why not change the five other rules listed below?
