(Or risk not making it and losing.)

Now, the first team could go for 2 to go up 8, but if they fail, the other team knows it only has to kick to win.

See what I'm saying?

Maybe the solution would be to require both teams to go for 2 each and every time in OT. But then you're still looking at long games and player safety, etc.
I don't remember where I saw this but one idea I saw floated was just make it so first team to score 8 points wins OT. But that still creates long games and it seems like a lot of the players aren't fans of anything that makes OT longer.
