Although I think Dungy made a good argument for keeping it like it is- he said something along the lines of defense and offense both being equal parts of a football team, and both line up 11 men. If the team that goes on defense first in OT ends up losing, it's becuase their D didn't make the necessary plays. If the team that goes on offense first loses, it's because the O didn't make the necessary plays.

heh, guess i should've read first
I can see Dungy's point, but a 50yd field goal isn't a spectacular drive and the other team should get the chance to do the same
