Don't really see any major reasons why it wouldn't work in the Pros.
I 'm not a big fan of the college system. I don't like looking at the papers and seeing a score of 49-42, and I imagine it would drive fantasy football owners berzerk. Not to mention that Peyton Manning's TD record becomes worthless.
A new OT system would have to guard against statistical inflation.

At the most, a 5-point OT rule would only give players an extra TD.
