I thought the point of your post was "if you think about it really was a tie. I think this recent rule change regarding overtime in College football is ridiculous.". I didn't realize the point of your post was "the tiebreaker system in college football is very new." I guess I need to reread it so I will be able to "figure it out. "


Also, a quick google search brought up that the overtime system was introduced for D1 in 1996, which, in my opinion, is not really that recent. (Note: this is just my opinion) I didn't research the rule change thoroughly so I might be wrong as to when it was enacted.
