This. I'm in favor of ties at the end of regulation in non-playoff or conference championship games. It's the most appropriate result if an hour wasn't enough to decide the result.

Just a logical extension of the 'normal' overtime rules IMO. Essentially 'we cant be bothered to keep playing standard football until somebody wins, so we're just going to cut out the middleman'. I'd prefer they just keep playing additional quarters until somebody ends up winning.
