If they miss, they are down 12, which is 2 TD's. With the xp, they are within 11 and that's a TD and a FG.

i know that is what they are thinking. But that is old-school, low probability thinking, devoid of real strategy. It's like a basketball coach who wants lots of 2 pt jumpers because they are higher percentage shots than 3 pointers. They are going to need a 2pt conversion at some point. Going for it on the first touchdown means 1) you might catch the other team off guard a bit, and 2) if you don't get it, you know you can't settle for a FG. Knowing what you need is more important that trying to keep hope alive.

Mathematically, going for 2 there gives you a slightly higher chance at winning.

Hey teams in Alabama, just hold on to the ball in the final seconds of regulation. Lol.

I can get behind that line of thinking. I guess the point is, the decision wasn't devoid of any sort of logic, so "really dumb" wasn't a good description.

But, as you said, it don't mattah.

Any decision which decreases your chances of winning, especially in the 4th quarter, is a really dumb decision. I stand by the description. The decision wasn't devoid of all logic, just devoid of any good logic.

Oh yeah, THAT game is still on. I got lost in the Utah meltdown and forgot. Thanks.

I am enjoying the cannibalization of the SEC.
