Let's hope we continue to play like this the 3rd quarter.

If this were the NFL, they'd have put him on waivers at halftime.

A FG still leaves them down 3 scores. Going for it was the right call.
Yeah, but it's 3 scores with at least one 2-point conversion. Isn't it early enough that a coach doesn't want to chase points later? I'm no coach, but I still think going for the field goal would have been wise. Makes it a smaller margin, and going for the TD ran the risk of getting shut out ... which happened.
I'll defer to you here. I'm not adamant about my stance.

With acceptable combine #s, definitely a 1st round pick. Heck, maybe even a Cowboy.

I guarantee you we would have burned June alive if he had kicked a filed goalt here.
It is just a bowl. Definitely go for it there on fourth to try to pump the fans and team up.
Defense is great. Really aggressive. I hope this is how we look next year with an improved secondary.

Great to have you back, Hint. Was wondering if you were watching. MH doing Estonia and SMU proud.

I'm thinking DeRuyter's mindset was that he didn't want to walk away from a prime scoring opportunity with just a FG that would have still left them down 3 scores. He's probably pretty confident in his offense given their performance this season. I liked the call given the way the half had gone for Fresno State.

After the combine Margus will be in the discussion to be a Top 10 pick
