Iowa-Ohio State: why college OT is pointless

[Senser81]

The option most beneficial to the health of the players is just to call it a tie. But you have to narrow it down to the one that best gets a clear winner, while being fair to both parties, doesn't jeopardize player health, and is not a complete diversion from the true form of the game.

Way to dodge the issue.

Sudden death in football is retarded.. so in that regard I like the college system. That being said.. the whole starting @ the 50 shit is nonsense.. do a kickoff like normal and then do the same system in place.. if the team the starts with the ball scores, you have a chance to answer.. if not, they get a chance to win.. until you get a fucking winner. Sudden death or a tie in football is beyond retarded.

Both teams had a chance to score... Iowa fucked thiers up and Ohio State didn't. Yeah, some sham.

BTW, Ohio State fans weren't booing... they were booing Tressel's decision to play for OT late in the 4th but I know they weren't booing him in OT for setting up the game winning field goal.

Stick with the NFL option but make it the first team that scores 6 wins

You score a TD, you win, or you get a field goal, stop them and get another field goal and you win, or 1 team kicks a field goal and you come back with a TD you win
