Networks hate OT or anything that messes with their planned schedule. Also why college football changed to you have to score TD’s after the third (I think I’m not a big CFB guy) possession.
I would much prefer to see NFL adopt the college OT format and they probably will after back to back years of OT like last night.
Also one other point in addition to the squib kick at the end why not run the ball before the two minute warning and run the clock down to 2? I know the pass was supposed to accomplish the same thing as it was in the middle of the field but it was incomplete and they compounded the issue by Josh running out of bounds on the next play.
