This is the most crucial IMO. This was right before all the ref frickery started. If we get a first down, it's all over. And I know the mindset was to run the clock down, but as one of the talking heads said earlier in the season: if you get first downs the clock takes care of itself.

With barely over 2 minutes and A&M with 2 timeouts it's the right call. Force them to expend the timeouts and leave them with 1:29 to go 78 yards with no timeouts. If you pass and get an incompletion they save the timeouts. It's a better probability. Especially if you have an "elite D" and mastermind DC.

Do you not have faith that Aranda's D can stop Mond who everyone says sucks from going 78 yards in 89 seconds without a timeout?

I'm not necessarily saying we should have passed, but you can call some aggressive run plays instead of that chicken shite play calling. My point is that you cannot give them the ball back whether I have faith in Aranda's D or not. Get the first down. End it.
