How often do you fumble a snap 1% of the time. I guarantee you a team scoring 30+ points a game with 2 TOs and the clock stops on 1st downs has a 25% shot or more at getting a TD. I'd take my chances running down the clock and trusting my offense can get 1 yard in 3 plays. If there's a penalty and i have to take a 4th down chpshot for OT and that guarantees the offense won't get the ball then im playing the percentages

Dont be ignorant and blankety say when you are losing you take the points. If your down 1 and you take that TD its beyond stupid

As far as missing a fg. How often is an xp missed ? We're talking about something auburn never missed all year an extra point versus something they did multiple times all season giving up a TD in 1:20

Fumbling could happen but whats the percentage chance i fumble?

You are forgetting there is absolutely a chance FSU scores w 1:20 Scoring to go ahead doesnt mean you will win. It means you will win if you stop them. Which isn't always the case. I'd say 95% of teams are more likely to score a TD on 1st and goal as compared to letting a team score w 1:20 to go

Don't be an idiot and act like points are easy to come by.

You don't tempt fate. You tell your defense to man up.
