Curious what people’s opinions are on 2 point conversions (as a philosophical discussion—not as a complaint/criticism about the game).

Late in the game, when possessions will be limited, I think they may make sense (make it a 7 point game instead of 6)

However, any time prior to the 4th quarter, I just think it’s too big a risk to give away that free (for the most part) point.

After our failed 2pt attempt, UNT had (I believe) 3 more possessions.
The way we were trying to give away yardage, what if UNT had kicked 2 FGs? That extra point would’ve been the difference between going to OT instead of losing in regulation.
What if we had kicked a FG in the 4th quarter? That extra point would’ve been the difference between a 1 or 2 possession game.

I know, I know. The list of “what if’s” is endless. But that’s sorta my point. The earlier in the game, the longer the “what if” list is—and I’d rather the one sure point.

I completely agreed with that decision to go for 2 at that juncture of the game.

There was a strong possibility at the time that we would have trouble scoring again.

Right call IMO.

I’m a fan of going for two every time you score. I think advanced analytics will eventually take over, but some coach has to be the first to take that jump.

I agreed with going for two when we did. I do agree that sometimes some coaches go for them when they should not.

iam still dont understand why we didnt get the 2 points...it look like a catch

He bobbled it. Had he maintained control it would have been, but he was out of bounds after the bobble.

The question I have from that play is what was done to cause the unsportsmanlike foul?

Pittman and the back judge had a philosophical difference of opinion as to the accuracy of referee's interpretation of the ruling.

I like trying for 2 point conversations at the halfway point of 3rd quarter especially in low scoring games. I also like 2 point conversations in the first quarter from the Chip Kelly school. In overtime games I also favor taking the ball first if my offensive is dominant. I developed that concept in high school when ball started at 10 yard line.. If we scored TD first then our defense could blitz and take chances forcing opponent to mistake.
