SJSU Play Calling

Did anyone else find Dr. Hill's play calling at the end of the 1st half a bit strange?
It was still a very close game. We had not shown a lot of ability in stopping Dale Rogers and they semed perfectly content to run nearly three minutes off the clock and settle, from the beginning of the possession, for three points. Mainly looked like their first priority was denying SMU the ball again and score something if possible.
