They have both satisfied the objective of playing to a tie in regulation, so why does Team A deserve an advantage for having the ball for one second at the end of regulation? I'm imagining a team intentionally false starting to get a 10 second run off in order to run out the 4th quarter clock to assure the other team cant get the ball back in regulation and have it in OT. I'm sure that would go over great.If you really want to give one team the advantage based on things that occurred during the game, maybe give the team with the longest time of possession, or yards gained, the ball first. In this way, both offense and defense have an impact on deciding who gets the ball first in OT and it's not just arbitrarily decided by a coin flip or who happened to hold the ball last.</blockquote>
