Because the possession before that on 3rd and 8 at the Iowa 12 or 15 yard line Brian calls a friggin pass play. The screen pass play blocking was set up well but an incomplete pass was the last thing needed.
Yeah, if they complete the pass and get the first down then they can run out the clock. But that is a low probability vs the time of the game the place on the field , holding the lead, and trying to make the clock run to make wisky call a timeout.
I am sure Kirk heard that play call if he had headphones on but really daddy needed to make sure that play was a run, even a QB sneak just to make them burn a first down.
