It's easy, and only takes a few moments.It's incredibly stupid--spiking the ball is not something that should happen very much at all....when you're driving, downs are king. You spike it rarely, and never when the other team is thinking about using their own timeouts!!
In two games today the losing team spiked the ball with a minute left. SF 49ers did it with 1:18 to go, and the Steelers did it against the Ravens.
Why waste a down?
Pitt is on the 1 inch line now on 4th down. If they didn't waste the down, they win the game.
This is sheer stupidity.
