Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 1867222, member: 5685"] Another factor that needs to be considered is your opponent's mind set. Down 8 every HC should be trying to score as quickly as possible. That way if the 2 point conversion fails, you still have time to onside kick and get a FG. However 99.9% of HC will think that they have 2 mins to tie the game and will take their time. So being up 8 will at worst get you to OT. Down 9 every HC will be trying to score as quickly as possible since they need two scores to win the game. So that increases the chances that you lose in regulation as opposed to being up by 8 points. Yes that increase will likely be 0.0001% but it is still an increase. [/QUOTE]
