Message: [QUOTE="JDubbin, post: 2314204, member: 2453"] When we scored the TD at the end of the 3rd, I have to think that going for 2 is the only option there... here's a few thoughts on why. Being down 9 points by making the extra point at that point of the game does not benefit. Still down two possessions, and sure 'cuse would have been playing for an outright win if the chips had fallen right, but if we were playing for a tie with a FG I'd still be plenty pleased with that. Plus, I thought Dino was an "out of the box" aggressive coach, it almost goes against his own coaching identity to not go for it. If we had gone for it and scored and followed up with going for it again after Ish's TD, would have been SO DIFFERENT. Even if LSU scores, we have a chance to respond in some way... 9 points down kills the game [/QUOTE]
