I’d say the chances are better you come back from down 25+ with attempting the TD. 3 points will get you no where.

Why in the world did K State kick a FG down 31-6?

Because they needed to score 25, which meant a 4 possession game. Kicking a FG

Goofy logic. You’re not going to make up 25 points by 3s…

At that point. Even if they scored again. It's still a 4 possession game either

The FG made it a 22 point game. At TD would have made it at best a 17 point game.

A surprising number of coaches prefer sad field goals to risking it for a touchdown

Sep 24, 8:20pm

The chance of scoring a TD on 4th and 11 were very slim.

Yeah. By the FG is meaningless. It’s just a sad trombone
