I didn't start the thread. That argument only points out that it is still a 4 score game regardless, so it isn't a VALID argument to go for the TD.
Who said you started the thread? Try to keep up here.
A touchdown sends everyone home for the night. Only you ladies who would be coaching in panties would nervously kick the field goal in that situation.
You never answered.....you were worried about VT scoring three times, starting from the 1?
YOU HAVE NO POINT!!!! WAKE UP!!!
1. I'm taking the 3 points because I'm taking the points after the turnover. The only exception would be if we needed a TD because of late in the game.
2. 31 points v. 27 points is much of a difference. 4 scores either way.
3. Since it is 4 scores either way, I am going with the better opportunity to score given the situation. With a lead of 27 points to start the 4th quarter, the game is over.
4. The question on whether I'm worried about VT scoring three times is irrelevant because the situation I present doesn't occur without a missed attempt for the TD. I'm not worried about VT at all once the score was 17-0. They're terrible. Oh but wait our defense has been a coat hanger abortion for the last 3+ years. So I'm taking the better chance to score.
5. Missing the TD keeps it at a 3 score game.
