[QUOTE="Heyjoe4, post: 955559, member: 13032"] There's just no easy answer here. Here's an extreme example, but it could happen. Team A wins the toss, takes the ball and scores a TD and makes either a one pt or 2 pt conversion. Team B gets the ball and does exactly what Team A just did. Score tied. Team A gets the ball back, moves into FG territory, kicks a FG and wins the game. NOT FAIR! Team A had the ball twice to once for Team A. Where does it end? The rule change then is no better than what we have now. The winning team gets an extra possession. I've changed my mind on this. Either live with the current rule, or go to extra periods of 15 minutes - just keep adding "quarters" until someone finishes the quarter ahead. And even that's not fair, cause the first team to get the ball in OT will have won a coin flip. There wouldn't be two halves in OT where each team gets the ball. Leave the rule as it is. [/QUOTE]
