    Still love the call

    Holy smokes this OSU game I just watched goes into the top 20 list of the most enjoyable games I have ever seen.

    Hoak, even though it did not work out, still in my opinion made the correct call going for two points.

    Just a great game.

    Usually agree with you Nash, but I think that was a horrible decision.

    Clearly Michigan had all the momentum.

    The only time OSU could stop them all day was on short goal to go situations.

    They may have been 16 point dogs on paper, but with how shitty OSU D was playing, it was no fluke that was a close game.

    I just don't see the reason, unless you got no trust in your kicker, or I guess maybe your entire football team.

    I like the call to go for 2 as well, I just don't like the play they called. Still a great effort and amazing game to watch.

    Great call.. the only option. OSU was tearing Mich D up for the ENTIRE half.. why take it further into OT when it was to be decided by one play?

    its not the only option they could kick the extra point at home with their fans backing them .... They both scored 40+ .... and anything can happen in overtime a bad snap, fumble, any kind of turnover, missed extra point etc etc Braxton miller could get hurt in overtime you don't know I predicted it would be no good before it happened you could feel it...terrible call

    I missed most of the game, so I can't speak on its quality.

    I believe you have to go to OT and hope OSU fukks up at some point.

    I get that he was trying to be bold, but sometimes you need a big mistake by the opposition to push you over the line for the upset.

    Both teams scored 6 touchdowns... pretty safe to say Mich was tearing up the OSU D as well.

    You know what else is great about the call, later tonight at the sports bar, 5 of us will say great call, the other 5 will say horrible.

    Great call. Michigan unranked, nothing to lose.

    Kicker has had serious issues as of late. Hoke has no trust there.

    Correct decision. Just a poor play call and/or execution. Should have been a dual threat there.
