You have to kick. My problem was that it appeared that Willis could have easily made the first down. Not scored but made the first down had he run. I wish that he had taken that route rather than a rather desparate pass to the corner of the end zone on the full run. That is a hind sight observation and not a complaint on one of our better performing athletes.

I also wondered why Justin didn't run for the first down. Give us more chances at a TD, rather than a last-ditch effort on 3rd and 3.

i concede the textbook said kick, but we all knew it was over without a touchdown. textbooks dont win games. just like you can throw away the two point conversion chart.

He's right. I think everyone in the stadium but the coach knew we couldn't win with a field goal.
