What are the most amount of points an NFL team, and college team can win by in OT?

[Kaabee]

could have sworn they changed it to a dead ball. thought i had actually seen it happen.

couldn't find it in the rulebook but i did find out that you don't have to for 2 in the 3rd OT. however, the 1-pt try won't count lol.

This is a good thread,

The reason it's unclear because you'd be a fukkin idiot not to drop to your knees after making the Pick/Recovering the Fumble.

The game is over by you simply just falling down.

This is why I swear It's a dead ball after change of possession.

But maybe its because when it happens the player just falls down.

That's great, Good work here

I know it used to be 14, although I don't think that's ever happened.

I think a 13-point win is the biggest. In 1996 Arizona State beat USC 48-35 in OT.

The next year Clemson beat Duke by 9 in OT on an INT return by Rahim Abdullah after Clemson had kicked a FG.

http://www.dukechronicle.com/articles/1997/11/10/blue-devils-fall-overtime-clemson-29-20

By the way, neither play affected the spread -- USC was a 6-point dog and wouldn't have covered even if the defender had taken a knee. Clemson was favored by 14 and didn't get there even with the TD.

Can't think of any OT victories by more than 8 points since then, but as far as I know the rule hasn't changed.

Smokey has been disqualified from posting anymore in this thread.

Don't appreciate his attitude.

I've already spoken to the SBR brass, and if he continues he will be banned on the spot.

[The Giant]

I still believe the answer is 8.

Unless they somehow fumble (75 yards - basically impossible) all the way back to their own end zone.

[M.W.]

You think it's 8 even though it's been explained that it's not 8. What a genius.

The rule book says:

d. Extra periods: An extra period shall consist of two possession series with
each team putting the ball in play by a snap on or between the inbounds
lines on the designated 25-yard line, which becomes the opponent’s
25-yard line. The snap shall be from midway between the inbounds
lines on the 25-yard line, unless a different position on or between the
inbounds lines is selected before the ready-for-play signal. After the
ready-for-play signal, the ball may be relocated after a charged team
timeout, unless preceded by a Team A foul or offsetting penalties.

e. Possession series: Each team retains the ball during a possession series
until it scores or fails to make a first down. The ball remains alive after
a change of team possession until it is declared dead. However, Team A
may not have a first and 10 if it again possesses the ball after a change
of team possession (A.R. 3-1-3-I-XII).

Team A and B designations are the same as defined in Rule 2-27-1.

f. Scoring: The team scoring the greater number of points during the
regulation and extra periods shall be declared the winner. There shall be
an equal number of possession series, as described in (e) above, in each
extra period, unless Team B scores other than on the try. Beginning with
the third extra period, teams scoring a touchdown must attempt a twopoint
try. Although not illegal, a one-point try attempt by Team A will
not score a point (A.R. 3-1-3-XIII).

I tend to believe Ghenghis Khan in times like these, MW.

He told me he was 99.9% sure, while offering no actual proof.

That's good enough for me.

[Louisvillekid1]

No team has won by more than 8 in OT since like '97

no worries if you have +8.5 in OT

unless of course I'm on that side with you

[The Giant]

I'm always worried, Kid. I had Northwestern this week.

in 2013, i'm pretty sure you can't score off of turnovers in college ot.

let's say the team that has the ball first turns the ball over, they put the ball on 25 for the other team.

Even on the first possession?

[Louisvillekid1]

Somebody losses a game this week in this fashion -120

This thread will be bumped at one point this year...

With Giant's luck, well you know...

The rule -- which has been quoted here -- says the ball remains live.

[Sarunas]

Careful on the relaxation, Sarunas!

+6.5 NFL ticket no guarantee, no time to open beer and celebrate, possible field-goal interception return for a touchdown by african-american speedy defensive back and bet go belly up! +6.5 not safe. +7 not safe. +7.5 not safe. +8 not safe. +8.5 not safe. +9 safe for tie. +9.5 is safe feel good, pull down pants and a victory dance.

Does you understand?

NFL monies only safe in overtime at +9.5. Okay? Okay.

Don't bring your links and proof up in hereah. Now there will be at least be 5 more people post that they don't think the rule is still the same.

I have to say, its been a while since a thread has cracked me up like this one has! Especially the NFL monies guy!

this is not what is being discussed. tennessee did not have the lead when they picked it off.

And what's your point?

you a fukking retard or what?

[rm18]

It is 6 for NFL and 10 for college because of TD + 2pt and then an improbable safety

You can.

WSU was 3 yards away from retuning a pick to score on the first play in OT of the Apple Cup last year. Unfortunately they don't give it to the team where they were stopped if they made it inside their opponents 25.

[rm18]

nevermind NFL 9 I guess didn't know the new rules completely, could happen though on like a strip sack does not have to be ran in by a defender

[M.W.]

you a fukking retard or what?

Uh, no. But you seem to be. You linked to a web page that doesn't talk about the issue, but even if it did, why the fukk would we believe what it says?

You're wrong. Admit it, and move on.

[InTheDrink]

Start at the opponents 25 and get a safety

omg i was waiting for someone to say something about that LMFAO

[luvtogamble]

anyone else here besides me have usc years ago against arizona st. had usc +12 and went to bed thinking winner. they ended up losing by 13.

call my local sunday morning to get lines and check figures and we were off. went through all the bests from saturday and he said usc loser and I said bullshit. he then explained what the penetrate happened. glad I did not stay up to watch it as would have been tossing and turning all night long.

also had I game (marshall vs someone) this year and was getting 8 points and end up pushing in 3rd overtime. both teams could not even make a field goal in first 2 overtimes.
