It depends on situation like anything else. In a high scoring game when they are getting gashed defensively, i agree with going for it and getting 6. Gameflow matters in these decisions

With Lane’s defense, he needed those points.

If you are asking from just a percentage standpoint, they were 73.3% on 4th downs this year before tonight, so yeah, it works more than it doesnt for him

Seems bigger when it fails. Because they do it so much. Fact.

I disagree with most of the times that he goes for it but on the 1 yard line you go for it almost every time.

Depends on situation. Up by 7 in the 4th, id prob kick it. Most other times, yeah, go

Him and BK are two peas in a pod on being idiots on 4th down. The FSU games made me lose my shite.
