Does Chip go for two? - Phogge - 11-24-2018

If they score at the end? He knows they won't be able to cover JJ in overtime. 3-8 record you have to go for two.

Yes, he definitely does. Good thing he didn't get the chance. Give credit to the D for making three successive stops.

Actually I thought UCLA discovered how to defend JJ just before the half.  Keep his arms pinned every play and draw the PI.  The clock keeps moving down and the field shortens every play.  Sooner or later you're down to 5 seconds left and Shaw can no longer risk the clock expiring, and we have to settle for 3.

But they don't have time in OT.  So it goes on forever until the eventual heat death of the universe.

Actually wasn’t that OSU’s strategy last year?  I think we failed on the two point conversion after like three PI’s.

It makes sense at end of the half. If Stanford has the ball inside your 10 and no timeouts, just tackle the receivers at the snap. Each play gets Stanford closer to your end zone, but time keeps ticking. Eventually, Stanford will kick the FG. This could also work with many other schools.

Half right, we made the 2-pointer.

I'm with BC, perhaps the wrong game, but I do recall a game where we were interfered on 2 consecutive tries and missed on the 3rd lob (which was also interference).

Nope, we won 15-14, with three field goals, and the last minute touchdown.

The TD put us ahead by 1, so we went for the two, and after something like three pass interferences, we failed to convert, leaving us with a one-point lead.

I indicated late in the game that he’d go for2 if they scored. Last game of year. 3-8. At home. No question he goes.

Wow I really thought we made it, I guess I should've looked it up!


RE: Does Chip go for two? - BostonCard - 11-24-2018

We scored the touchdown after at least one, if not two Pi’s, so maybe that’s what you were thinking.
