re: Thoughts on call to go on 4th down late in 4Q?

I didn't like the call last night. But .... 47 yard field goal was pretty unlikely, too. So ... I guess it could go either way
But, then .... offense came out and got 2 false start penalties in a row, and Ramos ended up kicking a field goal anyway.

Thoughts?
A hypothetical on if a successful play hadn't been successful. That's a waste of internet.

It’s a board to discuss LSU games.
I asked if we liked a call that could have made a big difference in the game if unsuccessful.
Sorry my question wasn’t “worth” your time bro.

It was the right call. Our kicker long FG was 36 yards

Thoughts?
If we kick it we are sending out a unit coached by Polian
Do you really need to think hard on possible new and unpredictable ways we would screw that up?

I remember against TN, Kelly was the dumbest guy in football for going for it on 4th. My oh my how a week and a win changes things.

I like being aggressive on 4th down. The last thing the opposing coach wants you to do is go for it on 4th and short every single time.

I feel that this was an aggressive call. It worked so no criticism per se.
But not converting there would have really sucked, as they would have had 3+ mins to score a TD to tie.
I was ok with it once I thought about it a while. The odds of the following choices could be:
run for 1st - 80%
Kick FG - 50% maybe less with the ST fiascos lately
Punt - gets you nothing.
Running for it and getting stuffed was not high risk since the a FG from the 30 would be a 48 yder.
When we finally did kick we had burned a lot more clock and the risk of missing less impactful.

It was 100% the right call to go for it there no matter the outcome of the play.
On the next 3rd down before the two false starts the right call if you get stopped there would have been to kick the field goal.
