I understand in NFL OT because if you score a TD you go up by 6 and even if the defense could score they would still lose the game.

In college the defense can score a 2 point play on a point after try. So if the 6 points from the TD causes the defending team to be down by 2 or less they would want the attempt to be tried cause they could score to tie or win.

But that doesn't seem to be the case.
