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

I guess we should expect him to score quickly and lose the game?
How many times do you have to watch it happen before you realize oh, wow maybe we SHOULD keep the ball in our offenses hand.
Don't basketball teams down 1 or 2 hold for the last shot instead of scoring with 20 seconds left?
Why is it Ok in basketball and stupid in football?
They miss those shots and lose all the time yet it's still the right call.
Just because it isn't a 100% guarantee, you are choosing the option that gives you the BEST CHANCE at winning and scoring quickly and expecting your sub-par tired defense to pull out a stop on an offense that's going from 3 downs per 10 yards to 4 is just bad math.

If a FG Wins the game for you, I'm more on board with this idea. But down by 3 or more under 2 mins you score when you can score, especially when it puts u up 4

Look, no one agrees with you. I can see a case for what you are saying in some games, but last night is definitely not an example.
Let's say the RB falls down at the 1 foot line. Now Florida State takes a timeout and there is the same amount of time on the clock and FSU has 1 TO left. What then? Kneel it again? It doesn't make sense to risk a bad snap or penalty just to burn one FSU TO and no clock, right? How long do you do this?
