    How long does the average regular season American Football game last in real time?

    Depends on whether it's professional, college, or other, and also whether or not it's televised. The average length of an NFL football game as of 2004 is 3 hours, 6 minutes (televised). For college games in 2000, it was 3:26 for televised, 3:02 for non-televised.

    "The average Football Game lasts about 3 hours. When you take into account stoppage for injures, time to set up the next plays, time to review the last play, time to move the chains, time for commercials, time to set up the field goal, time to ice the kicker, and time to generally sit around and do not much of anything, there are only 8 1/2 minutes of action in a game."

    Accrington Stanley resigned from Division 4 of the Football League on Monday 6th March 1962 (see Q# 21933).
