Screw the analytics. Nearly cost us the game . Game would have been over in regulation. THe old saying is you never go for two til th e4th quarter.

it was just plain crazy to go for two at that point in the game. I don’t believe the analytics say go for two when an extra point makes it a 10 point game. If the analytics do say that, the analytics are dumb. 17-8 is not significantly better than 17-7 while 17-6 is much worse because now you may have to go for two again. KICK IT KIRBY and you win the game 28-27 with no overtime. I was literally shouting at the TV saying KICK IT, KICK IT.

Same. I was yelling at the TV, What are you doing?!

The decision made absolutely no sense.

Lies, **** lies, statistics and analytics! There’s no football reasoning for going for two; even if GT doesn’t score again, UGA would have had to score twice with one of them being a TD.
