The NCAA Football Rules Committee on Friday recommended a slight change to overtime rules that would require a team to try a two-point conversion after a touchdown when a game reaches the second overtime instead of the third.
The committee also addressed the problem of teams faking injuries to slow an opponent’s momentum and blocking below the waist, among other areas.
Changes must be approved by the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel, which is scheduled to discuss football rules recommendations April 22.
The overtime recommendation was based on player safety and intended to reduce the number of plays it takes for a winner to be determined.
