another disapointing loss going for two and not getting in ruining the other hour of Football your team has played. North Carolina vs Clemson go for the win and the two point conversion. Had the number one team in the country on the ropes down 21-20 and you go for two....GOD I hate going for two when an extra point ties the game. It fails what 95% of the time! Why do coaches take it out of the hands of the rest of the team? NC Defense played their butts off

Fortunately for you your jayhawks wont ever have to worry about that
 
I'm personally a fan of going for 2. You're a severe underdog. Your team has played way above their talent level. Let's not sugar coat it, the talent gap between Clemson and NC is large. But when you have the #1 team on the ropes you gotta go for the knockout punch. I'm not a fan of the play call, but I like going for two. NC's between the tackles running was working very well. Why not feed your back when he carried them all the way down the field? I say all of that not to say that you're wrong for not wanting to go for two but just that I'm my opinion it made sense.

If you are Mack Brown and before the game are told you have one shot to get 3 yards and you win the game I think you are pretty excited. If you are Dabo and you're told you have one shot to defend 3 yards to win the game you are probably going to be pretty nervous about it.

For North Carolina it is the right call being the underdog. If it is reversed and Clemson scores, you kick and tie the game because you are the better team. It was a no brainer to me. You play to win.

I am all in on going for two. The problem was trying to run wide on a fast defense was a pretty horrible call.
 
They ran almost the exact same played Carthage tried to beat Joplin with . Terrible play against a fast defense especially when your qb is 240 pounds and has about 300 yds rushing between the tackles
 
Carthage and North Carolina both made the right decision imo . Didn't work out but play to win!
 
If I were Carthage , id have some sort of short yard package with Muller in Wildcat , Carlton and Schrader as H Backs -Sniffer back and running power right behind Campa . Good freaking luck stopping that
