But do any leagues do it that way? Say an NFL RB needs another 20 yards to break the single season record for rushing. If his team allows the other team to score on the last play of the game, to instantiate the overtime, do the rushing yards he earns in OT not count towards his career rushing yards?

Would Nash's OT assists not "count"? Why would you not award the points earned as well?

Are you saying that each league has an administrative quirk or am I missing something?
