...or anybody who knows.

So, at the end of the Stanford - UCLA game last night, with Stanford just having taken a 16-13 lead, Josh Rosen attempted a Hail Mary pass on the final play. The play started with 00:04 left on the clock. He took the snap, ran around for a few seconds and then got leveled by a Stanford Linebacker (Joey Alfieri I think) and coughed up the ball. Solomon Thomas picked up the ball and ran it in tfor 22-13. Game over. Players start coming on the field. They never kicked the PAT. Nobody ever said anything about it. Is this normal for a game where a TD is scored with no time left and the PAT would make no difference?

Yes. The game is over and the PAT only matters to gamblers (if anyone) at that point.

Back in the day some conference tiebreakers used a positive points system, but those are all gone as well. They were mostly in FCS and below anyway.

In the 1982 Tangerine Bowl, Doug Flutie threw a touchdown pass as the clock ran out.

He was then allowed to run a two-point conversion for a final score of 33-22 in favor of Auburn.

Why allow a meaningless conversion?

Ol Doug was before my time as an official so no idea what the thinking was then. I haven't seen a meaningless try in my ten plus years of NCAA football.
