It’s pretty much standard to go for 2 to make it a 6 point game, as extra points are far from guaranteed.
Oh well, I usually guess better than that. There is a fairly long time to be, I wonder if it will move closer to my 7.5 by then. That seems like way too much to get there though.
I will say, the Buckeye fans here in the bar I was at in Daton took pretty well.

Really, XPs in college FB are far from guaranteed? Yeah, nothing is ever guaranteed but XPs are pretty close.
the chart says go for 2. I’m sure he just looked at the chart and did what it said that late in the game.
Clemson would have been up by only 4 with the missed 2-pt conversion vs up 5 with a made XP. Had OSU scored a TD with 35-40 seconds left, that would have put them up 3 instead of up only 2. Clemson would have been playing for a FG to tie instead of win.
I guess you could look at it both ways but I’d say the charts are wrong for that case.
Yeah but their other kicker is only 2-3!
I’m just telling you that’s why he went for 2 there, it’s pretty much a standard move. It should be automatic to go for 2 there in the NFL, where extra points are much more problematic.
