But if it was for Bonani, there was a lot better chance he would make that field goal than we were going to make a miraculous comeback. It was clear this team had no chance to win the game from about the two minute mark going forward. I praise you for booing the call. I know you wouldn't boo the players. But you know....you don't teach a team to quit. At the very worst, you teach them to persevere and you work on sticking that ball in the end zone so you benefit some time in the future. You know the other team wants to shut you out. Kicking a FG is weak in my opinion, drive that ball into the end zone. Honor your guys for persevering, not for taking the path of least resistance. I'm really angry about this and am respecting the profanity rules. I'm very angry. I understand. I'm more apathetic, and hoping that whether or not he gets the boot that whatever changes are made turn this around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately Holtz's previous decisions during the Miami game blurred the reason for kicking the FG. Exactly. We can continue to make excuses (as he does), but is this something to be proud of? Does it matter? We have much bigger issues than that decision. I think a better way to say what you said is that this decision is symptomatic of the bigger issues you're talking about. Yeah, could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The play had no outcome on the game. Extra Point kicks exist for a reason. He would have gotten the play anyhow if we get a touchdown. I could have understood if it was a 40-50 yard attempt and he wanted to try it for the sake of being a senior and having a little pride in his kicking.

NOBULL1 Posted December 2, 2012 Group: Member Topic Count: 13 Content Count: 187 Reputation: 6 Days Won: 0 Joined: 01/03/2002 Share Posted December 2, 2012 FG should never had been kicked. Tonight was a game which you play to win. This was not a scrimmage to work on aspects of the game for the upcoming season. Not only did Skip kick the FG but he followed it up with kicking off deep when everyone from Pitt was expecting an onside kick. Whether you lose by 1 or 100 it counts as 1 loss. Skip hasn't learn this as multiple games this year he tried to make losses look better than they were to cover his ass. Needs to be fired for being a fraud.
