Tennessee Gameday...

[pokercuse08]

10 means a TD and a FG to tie.

11 means a TD+2 and a FG to tie.

Still need two TD's to win either way.

And more importantly if you're down 11 you're still going to need a 2 point conversion to tie. It's better to go for two earlier, and know what you're working with either way since it affects your strategy. Saving the 2 point conversion for the end often means if you fail, it's too late to adjust your strategy accordingly.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that they did the right thing analytically.

QB draw is an interesting choice

Yes. But I doubt that was the play call. And by doubt I mean "hope"

Yep, these announcers are so effen stupid

 

[EnviroSciGuy]

A lot to work on, but great to see the kids fight to the end. Let's have a good series on D here.

 

[Orangezoo]

Our lack of throws in the end zone is a bit concerning

Our ability to power run against Tennessee in the red zone is impressive though.

 

[CanadianSU]

If we didn’t have that first quarter…

 

[Archimedes]

We need some help from Aguilar here.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Truthfully we can’t make a FG outside of 15 yards

How would you know?

 

[phil77]

Our lack of throws in the end zone is a bit concerning

What why? We have scored 4 touchdowns on the road against a really good defense who cares if we throw or run

 

[Irt4su]

Swing pass. Gain of 25. Sounds about right

 

[HRE Otto IV]

10 means a TD and a FG to tie.

11 means a TD+2 and a FG to tie.

Still need two TD's to win either way.

No difference between the 2. Big difference between 12 and 11. Risk reward. Simple stuff.

 

[SU94]

Why go for 2 there… unreal

Because you have to go eventually and now we have almost 12 minutes to make educated decisions. Kick the XP and we need it later and if we miss then, it is over. No time left.

 

[MSOrange]

I'm not second guessing Fran as I love the man but we should be down by 10 right now.

I think it's fair to second guess that. It's math, not X's and O's

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Chris Thomas cramp

 

[W'boro'Cuse315]

Slimy TFL

 

[Eric15]

This is the most cramps I’ve ever seen in a football game. And it’s not hot in this stadium at all.

 

[orange_in_VA]

And unfortunately our defense exists. Lol

 

[Yeti]

2 teams full of athletes…. Can’t go 2 plays in a row with “cramping”

 

[gocraz4dasu]

As someone who hasn’t been able to watch and is recording the game, it sounds like the defense is still really frustrating. Yasin sounds like he’s crushing though

 

[Archbold44]

In fairness. This game has been going on for a week. Cramps are not surprising.

 

[Bulldog04]

This is the most cramps I’ve ever seen in a football game. And it’s not hot in this stadium at all.

Too many nachos grande I’m assuming

 

[swish7]

Terrible angles & scheme & all the coachable stuff

 

[Orangezoo]

Can’t lose Thomas that looks like a hamstring

 

[orange_in_VA]

Honestly impressed by not letting this become a blowout with all of the stupid mistakes penalties that killed multiple drives
