      Or was it based on Whitt saying Cam, we win or loose with you.  Go bring this one home.

      Utah wasn’t able to stop SC inside the 35. I think that was why. Or Whitt just decided to flex on them. ChadKyle>>>>>Riverboat Kyle

        He decided to let Cam flex on them.

          They had no answer for Kincaid or Rising. 
          Gotta pay more for that DC next season $C.

      Probably the latter. The way Cam was playing, giving him the ball makes sense.

      Analytically, it’s probably about a wash. Two point plays succeed about 43% of the time in college. OT would probably be about 50% win chance for either team. But add in the consideration that there’s about a 6% chance that a kicker misses an extra point, and the chances of winning seems about the same either way.

      They were moving freely on us and we were moving somewhat reliably on them. Given the context I think he just called it from feel.
