Why did no time come off the clock with the extra point? Clearly it took more than 3 seconds but the clock never moved. Is that always a dead play?
 
Always a dead clock on the extra point

thx - was thinking that they could run the clock out right there.
wishful thinking
 
The only problem with going for two is that if it's pick for a score they get two points and the win. I was happy to see it in the back of the end zone.
 
didn't understand why they went for 2 there.

with :03 left, there's no way that USF either returns the ball into FG range, or runs a play and gets into FG range. If USF picks off the ball, or returns a fumble on the 2-pt play, and takes it back all they way, they get 2 points (and go up 1), no?

Wisest choice, given Krautman's shakiness, would've been to take the snap and kneel down.

I was thinking the same thing. Since there were only 3 secs left on the clock, that means USF would have had to run the kickoff back for a TD regardless if SU kicked the PAT or tried to convert for 2 points. The PAT could be blocked and returned for 2 points, and the 2 pt. conversion could have been picked and taken back for 2 pts.

In that situation, if I'm Marrone, I don't kick the PAT nor go for 2. I have Nassib take a knee.

Great minds...

Wow. Never thought of that great call sam
 
Here's a plausible scenario:

SU takes a knee.
USF returns the ensuing kick-off to to mid-field, but there is a personal foul penalty on Syracuse. Since the game can't end on a penalty, Bonani comes on and kicks his 6th FG with 0:00 on the clock, and Skippy goes home victorious.

Not that far-fetched.

More far fetched than a fumble or Int return IMO.
