Because coaches make the rules and COACHES put a lot of value into the last 2 minutes and overtime. That's why I roll my eyes and tune out when officials drone on about all calls, no matter what point in the game, being equal. COLLEGE officials will have no problem adjusting to this rule change.
Another possibility could be just having the quarter breaks as media timeouts, or quarter breaks + media timeout at/under the 5 minute mark. That would keep the current number of media timeouts.
