Never underestimate their ability to choke

?? You have to get the 2 at some point. What difference does failing now vs failing later make?
Correct, failing on the 2nd td gets you to tie and you need to get it, missing it on the 1st td the ballgame is over because it is a 2 score game still!
 
Well James Franklin started chasing the points late in the the first half. They missed that 2 pt conversion and just now Franklin , down 9 after a late td, goes for 2 again and missed it to stay down by 9 , 2 scores, with under two minutes.

If psu kicks 2 PATs they are down only 24-17 right now. Chasing points.
 
why was the mi coach crying? hope it’s not because their team is being persecuted for being excellent.
 
Game, set, match......psu out of B1G championship game @ CFCG....... How sweet!!!
 
James Franklin is the dumbest coach in America! Down 9, he goes for 2 and doesnt get it! He needs to kick the extra point so, you are only down 8 (1 possession)! Wow, coaches are dumb as $hit!
And Kirk did the same thing in 2016 or so in that dreadful loss at home to purdue
 
If they're down 8 they still need the conversion or they lose. It makes no difference when they go for it. The dumb decision was going for it in the 2nd quarter down 9-14.
It was dumb to go for it earlier. The whole point is, THEY DIDN'T NEED TO GO FOR 2 THERE AT THAT TIME! They would have to go for it, if they scored another TD. Them doing at down 9 and not getting it was ballgame!

Would you rather know it was a two possession game all along with 2 minutes left or with 5 seconds left? You're just as screwed down nine with 2 minutes as you are down two with 5 seconds.

It's not a 2 possession game if they kick the extra point on the 1st td!
If you kick the extra point down 8! You onside and get it, you have a chance!
If you go for 2 on the 1st td and miss it, you are down 9. You get the onside, guess what YOU ARE STILL DOWN 2 SCORES?
Which one do you have a better chance at coming back and winning? Holy hell!
 
You didn't do so well in math class, I'm guessing.
Tell me which one of these scenarios is better!

Before snapping the ball on the conversion Penn State needed: a 2 point conversion, an onside kick recovery, another touchdown, and the PAT. It doesn't matter what order they come in, the chances of getting all 4 is the same.

It makes no difference if you fail the conversion after the 1st touchdown versus after the 2nd touchdown. You can't say the decision to go for it was bad without the knowledge that it failed.

It was a bad decision to go for it at that time because IF you don't get it, ballgame is over! There was ZERO reason to go for it when they didn't need to! If you can't understand that, I dont know what to tell you!
