Tie breaking rules

Post by coachmark »

Canadian Amateur, CFL and NCAA all use shootout format for extra period. Canadians start from 35 while NCAA starts from 25-yard line. Each team gets a possession in each period.

Canadian rule states that after 3 series, if score is still tied, teams must go for 2 point conversion.

It would be nice to have this option available.

[font="Courier New"]coachmark,

I am with you on this, because you ask for it as a feature that can be turned off, even though I hate what in USAn FootBall is commonly called Kansas City Tie Breaker.

By the way you posted this in the wrong place (it can be found in suggestions / Wishlist, under A Quick and Short Wish List For Now... 's threading starting Post, Wishlist item #22) and it has already been posted in the right right place (not complaining).
