    Best game of the year. Those Broncos showed what it means to leave it on the field.

    I don't think this game means we need a playoff at all. Boise State doesn't play ANY teams that matter. If they had to play an ACC schedule, they'd be lucky if they would finish 7-4. If they played an SEC schedule, they wouldn't even qualify for a bowl.

    Oklahoma is not an SEC team and I'm talking about their SCHEDULE for an ENTIRE SEASON.

    This game was more a matter of Oklahoma LOSING it rather than Boise State winning it and if you think about it, it really was a tie. I think this recent rule change regarding overtime in College football is ridiculous.

    What?

    I've thought about it, and it wasn't a tie. Both teams knew the rules of overtime coming in so it wasn't as if one team had an unfair advantage.

    And I like this overtime system a LOT better than the "first to score wins" method of OT they have in the NFL.

    The tie breaker system in college football is very new, that was my point. If you had included the sentence after my statement when you quoted me, you would would have been able to figure that out.

    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.
