I like the sudden death format. I personally don't think that it needs to be changed. But if I had to tweak it,this would be my idea. There would be no kickoff. If you win the toss and want the ball then you have to start at your own 10 yard line. Basically you are trading field position for the chance to score first. It's still a slight advantage for the team with the ball, but now they have to go about 55-60 yards to try a long FG. But they are also in a tough spot if they should go 3 and out and or take a penalty somewhere in the sequance. Teams with strong defenses might even opt to start on defense trying to gain the field position if they should stop them. Then most likely 10-15 yards for them (after the punt) would put them in position for their own FG attempt.
