I am curious how the overtime rule is written for the third overtime and beyond in reference to trys. Using NF rules a successful try is defined as:

8-3-3 During a try, A may score two points from what would be a touchdown or one point for a field goal or safety by B under rules governing play at other times during the game.

I'm sure the NCAA rule does not just dumb everything down by saying that a team must go for two. It probably says something like "a field goal during a try will not score one point" or something similar. So show us what the rule says because I also believe they don't want to not award a point for a safety in this situation.
