Not 65% at all, when they know you're running it for sure and who is going to run it... like today. But you take the FG so that it makes no difference whether the on sides kick works or not... So there is no wrong here.... but there is insuring that you can't get beat by a TD and a FG with 4 1/2 minutes left... you don't leave that opening, as in college football it happens all the time !!!onsides kicks are about a 10% chance of working. 2 yard gains are probably about 65% of working. You're wrong.
Hey, we won the scheissing game. Enjoy it.Not 65% at all, when they know you're running it for sure and who is going to run it... like today.

Fg unit was shaky today, especially at that end. You have to take all that into account. Tech coach will learn also from his stupid FG attempt.
Not saying you are wrong but I didn’t have a problem with it. 2 yards seals the game, no guarantee he makes the kick and even if he does you could still lose. It makes the other team go another 30 yards to score, that’s it. That could literally be one play. Go ahead and try to put the game away by getting 2+ yards. That’s probably the percentage play.
Calling @steelfrogNice to see intelligent posts on the board for a change
The way our previous attempt went in that direction ...Run on a 4th and 2 ... while in easy field goal range, forcing TT to have to go for 2 TDs to win ... instead of needing only a FG/TD to beat us with 4:30 left. What a crappy decision Coach !!! Never ever thought I would ever scold you... ever. Be glad the missed FG late and a couple of plays late, saved your ass on that lousy decision.
Chip shot like the previous attempt?Agree with asleep 100%. Chip Shot field goal to put it out of reach for a touchdown and field goal. I thought that was a pitiful call. Patterson goes for it when he shouldn't and he doesn't when he should.

Kell is a very good field goal kicker. Misses happen. Nevertheless have you seen us stop kicking field goals? The timing to not kick the field goal was foolish. It would have put us completely out of reach from a touchdown and a field goal. I am one that loves to go for it often. But no way in that territory with the score that it was with a good field goal kicker was that a good decision.Chip shot like the previous attempt?
Griffin Kell is a good kid from a nice family but tbh he is extremely average or very slightly above. I will say the 38 yarder he hit yesterday showed more accuracy and authority than he showed from all distances in the last four games. His stats place him squarely in the lower middle of college kickersKell is a very good field goal kicker. Misses happen. Nevertheless have you seen us stop kicking field goals?

A first down knocks two more minutes off the clock.

Easy to say after the fact but that type of play was getting big yardage throughout the game. And it's not like our offense has some go to bread and better type of play that we just knock out of the park on a consistent basis. When you have an OL full of leaks then any and every play call can blow up in your face.Didn't hate going for it but the play call was stupid
How about "Don't hold your breath for a 2020 Football season, yet" ...Curious of interest by the OP. He said there was no way in Hell we would have a season, and for those that did, they were fools.
I apologize for thread hijack, but had to call a Curt on him.
Come now, its a time for healing and forgiveness. People need to let go of their hatred and embrace a new dawn of togetherness and unity.Curious of interest by the OP. He said there was no way in Hell we would have a season, and for those that did, they were fools.
