Why are the hashmarks set up differently in the NCAA and the NFL football fields?

The way they set the hashmarks up in the NCAA compared to the NFL makes all of the NCAA football fields seem bigger then the NFL football fields in width. Why do they do that? What is the purpose in them doing that?

College likes to overload one side of the field more for playmaking since they do more trick plays...the NFL has their hashmarks inside so they have more room on their plays to the outer ends of the field...athletes are bigger and much faster for the most part then the NCAA thats why the NFL hashmarks are more to the inside

Because the NFL changes the rules, etc more often to envourage more offense and higher scoring games. Not being faced with a very narrow side fo the field as in acollegegame, NFL offenses can be more prolific and more field goals can be scored as well.

Also, narrower hash marks create better sight lines for the fans in the stands.
to give the kickers a better chance. its like golf..do you think you can hit a better tee shot off a narrow fairway or a W I D E F A I R W A Y ?
Not really sure. But those far apart hash marks make field goal kicking more difficult. Guess they did that so when Miami plays Florida State we can see missed last second field goals.
those are the regulations.
