Wait a minute...this is a veteran staff with a 67 year old head coach who had a team play in a National Champ game.  Pure and simple, their judgement at 8:49 was wrong.  They were greedy.  They were pigs and pigs get slaughterd.  Any high school coach and everyone on this site knows the politically correct thing to do in that siuation is run the ball and let the clock run.  We didn't and it cost us.  In that siuation they should not have been greedy but done the politically correct thing, just run the ball  and we probably win.  Still, we made plenty of other mistakes in the second half.
