re: When you are down 3 with the ball...

absolutely would have been the right call. you play to win the game, that means putting your team in the best position to win. FSU had the momentum and the auburn defense was worn out. leaving that much time on the clock killed auburn. if he goes down at the one, at best, they leave fsu with no timeouts and about 30 seconds to go down the field for the score. at worst, they kick a fg and go to overtime.
