Do you think that NCAA football should have overtime rules that are the same as the NFL OT rules? I think that the NCAA changed their OT rule in 1997, and I think that they should have continued allowing tie games.

As I get older (43), I’ve become oddly nostalgic for the wild wild west of college football where games and seasons could end without a definitive winner. I’m not entirely sure that overtimes and playoffs are any better at picking “the best team” than the old system.

But American sports fans hate ties and love playoffs.
