re: Brian Kelly and "analytics" on going for 2

The decision Kelly made was we were not playing for a tie and overtime. You can agree or disagree with this decision, but once made, the analytics would tell you to go for two. The reason why is that you want to know were you stand (i.e. how many scores you need) asap as this effects how you play the rest of the game. Overall this increases your odds of winning somewhat.
This is the best explanation I've seen of it. The idea that it is all "analytics" is misguided in my mind.
I thought the decision and failure to convert psychologically killed our chances ultimately, though. My "gut" choice would have been to just keep rolling along as if it was a normal touchdown + XP at that juncture.
