[QUOTE="OburgCuse, post: 1161296, member: 788"]
I was really questioning whether we should have went for it or kicked the field goal at end of half due to us possibly cutting it to 2 scores and getting ball back after half...but the deciding factor for me that we absolutely should have went for it was the amount of time still left on the clock.  There was 1:58 left in half after they called TO after our 3rd down run.  If we kick a field goal there I see them starting at 35-40 yd line minimum after return or us kicking out of bounds/squib (highly likely for us) and they will most surely score again before half and wouldn't be surprised if ends up a TD.   If we score a TD then obviously we'll take that, but if we get stuffed on 4th down they are mostly like going to be conservative starting from back there and won't try to push it so we end up getting ball back after half.  I just felt like in a 2 min drill the way the first half was going no way we stop them from scoring with prob 1:40 to go with a TO and 60-70 yds to go.  Best case scenario IMHO if we kick field goal they kick field goal with best kicker in nation before half and negates our field goal anyways.
