LSU vs Arkansas

[jwwashburn]

I am a Baseball umpire and a football fan.

I thought I knew the college rules fairly well. I was confused today.

Here is what I think happened:

Arkansas won the coin flip to begin OT. They chose to take the ball second.

Then, Arkansas got the ball first in the second and third OT.

The announcers did not say anything.

Did I see what I think I saw? What is the rule? What happened?
