Would you have gone for two?

While we debate this should Washington went for 2 today instead instead of playing for OT the Eagles wouldve had 2 seconds left I lean toward saying yes more to UConn since our game had 40 seconds left vs 2 seconds.

Here's the math. 2 point conversion make % is 40% to 55%, so flip of a coin. Extra point make % is 90% to 95%. And, the 2 point conversion is from the 3, so making 3 yards by Stafford is a big ask.

In OT, I think UConn had the advantage as UConn was running with ease and had Stafford for a 1 yard situation. Pass defense is easier on a short field. I kick the extra point.

UConn was 38 for 38 on PATs over all of last year and this year prior to the block by USU.

You claim that and claim being a numbers guy, and yet you've put yourself on the wrong side of the numbers. Interesting. Well, at least you're warm at night...

Because I don't treat the numbers like they're a religion. They aren't.

Nope. They're not a religion, because they don't require a belief system to work. You seem to be relying on your belief system instead of actual numbers and data. Not really something that people with PhD's in STEM are known for, but hey, you do you man...

Yes, now knowing that the PAT was blocked.

Put another way, poll coaches with this question.

Rather than play a whole game, you have the ball on the 3-yard line and you get one play to win/lose the game, do you do that or play the whole 60 minutes?
