Does anyone know the rules for Pro and College Football overtime rules. Also the Pro Exhibition overtime rules. Do they play it? How long? 1 or two overtimes? I can't find the answer anywhere.

Good question and here is what I think the answer is:
Pros: Preseason or regular - 15 minute overtime. No tie games last year but I believe there were two the year before and then there was a gap of about 5 years.
College: Each teams gets a shot from the 25 I think until they settle it. I think they make them go for a two point conversion after so many overtime tries. This needs to be double checked as different conferences might have it different.
I'm getting the idea you are a teaser man! As far as a black and white documented source I am also interested in where to find it. Gotta be in a rules handbook for officials I assume. -

Nfl exhibition coahes tend to go for 2 to avoid ot.Comment

I think it is after 3 ot's that they have to start going for 2's in college, but I may be wrong, and I certainly apologize if I am.
