Down 19 and get a TD and don't go for 2..I'm not sure if someone knows something that I don't but with 6 or 7 still going to need 2 TDs where as with 8 only another TD (2pt conv) and a fg to tie. Yes, it more than likely won't happen but y not do the logical thing, at least in my mind
Coaches are certainly not mathematicians, especially in the heat of a battle. It's always mind boggling to me how horrible these coaches are at time management too. They really need to hire some guys to do the math. I think Bama does.
The point is that they should already have a chart based on the score that tells them whether or not to go for 2. It is not rocket science or even difficult math.
