Watching the LSU/Aggies OT game, by the end of the game both defenses were too gassed to make a stop.  That's my real problem with extended OT games -- not some generic "player safety" argument, but real football terms --  every game turns into a Big12 game by the end.  So I stick with my position:

After 3 OTs, call it a tie.  But don't require teams to go for 2 point conversations -- leave it up to a coaching decision, like the good ole days, whether to go for the tie or a win at the end.

I like it.

Except for the part where my computer changed "conversions" to "conversations."    Huh?

No amount of fair rules changes will make the game end any sooner because you are making it harder or easier for both teams.    Just suck it up and play ball!  This ain't tiddly winks! 

Make them switch end zones after each OT to address the crowd issue.
They already do that. One team picks (usually to go on defense first), the other team picks the direction of play.  If tied after OT1, repeat the choices.

It just looks the same on TV.   Laughing

Quote
The winner of the toss may not defer the choice and must
choose one of the following options:
1. Offense or defense, with the offense at the opponent’s 25-yard line to
start the first possession series.
2. Which end of the field shall be used for both possession series of that
overtime period.
c. The loser of the toss shall exercise the remaining option for the first extra
period and shall have the first choice of the two options for subsequent
even-numbered extra periods.

You sure about that?  Huh?

LSU/aTm never switched ends.  Unless the aTm fan with the green shirt on behind the end zone ran to the other end of the field each time.

Well the rules appear to allow it... maybe there were two Aggie fans wearing green shirts, or the coach didn't care?

Allowing it is not the same as making them switch.

How about playing perpendicular to the field, facing each bench, after the first OT?

The refs can't make them switch.  The coaches/team captains decide.  Maybe there was no good end zone to pick in College Station?

Well, if they are going to force teams to go for 2 after scoring a TD, just make the 50 yardline the goal line and let each team play toward whichever direction they choose.  That way would remove any "home goal" benefit to some degree.

Except maybe they just need a FG.

Hence the proposed rule change to make them switch.
