Fair point made above about using up short yardage scoring plays, though.

I'm typically not a fan of going for 2 unless you need too late in the game. The way this game was going though I thought we should have gone for it to tie the game at 14. But later in the game I thought we should have tried at least once. I understand keeping it a 9 point game as it makes it a 2 score game but the way that game was going and the way our defense was playing I thought we needed to have a 3pt lead because they were moving the ball up and down the field most of the game with ease. Keeping them out of FG range was something we didn't do a lot of all game long.
