yes it was over IF we executed. So why not make sure we execute. Fumbles happen, blocked punts happened. Of course once we opened the door wide open by running our play too soon then the ball was in their court. Assuming their coach would not act in the best interest of his team out of some fake "sportsmanship" is strange.
All worked out well, but it was only a 3 point game, if you are SMU you make us execute the final 1:25. If we don't for some strange reason than you capitalize on that.
If this is a 2 score game it is a different story.
