Not a real huge risk. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a reflection of the military or the coaching. In that situation we would do the same. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got a great chance for it with the home crowd looking on at the end. Edited November 1, 2015 by GaUSFBull 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have been more surprised if they kicked the FG. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
