One of the most talked‑about questions on forums is, “When was the last tie in a college football game?” The answer is a 2016 showdown between Georgia Southern and Appalachian State. That game became the final tie because overtime rules introduced in 1996 have made dead‑heat finishes almost extinct.

Why ties are rare in college football

Back in the day, if teams were deadlocked after four quarters, the game simply ended in a tie. The NCAA changed that in 1996 by adding an overtime format where each team gets a chance to score from the 25‑yard line. Since then, the odds of a tie dropping below 1 %.

Even with overtime, a tie can still happen under extraordinary circumstances—like severe weather forcing a game to stop before overtime starts, or a mutual agreement to call it off. Those moments are few and far between, making each tie a piece of trivia worth remembering.
