Why do people always bitch about OT?
Huh, I thought it was even closer to 50% than that.... I'd like to see the coin flip go away just so home field advantage plays into it, and it would add to the strategy at the end of regulation, since if you were the home team, you could decide beforehand whether to kick or receive in OT (and the road team would generally have a good idea of what the home team would plan on doing, too).

Does anyone know why the college system is called the Kansas tiebreaker? Does it come from the 8-on-8 (or whatever) leagues?
