Incorrect. In my scenario, the 2nd team wins when they score the TD. It's not 'win by 5', it's 'first team to score 5'.

Oh, so it's just the same as the current OT system, accept the team getting the ball second now is forced to look to go for a TD, since all the other team would have to do is kick a FG?

Everything your trying to do just seems convoluted. There's already been 60 minutes played, both sides have had their try. If you want to adopt some sort of point system for the one or two OT games a team may have a season, if that, so be it. I don't see the big deal. I think this argument would have more weight for me if it was in reference to Playoff games for whatever reason.
