<Finally, was anyone else thinking it was too soon for Vandy to go for two
that first time? Came back to hurt them.
I have always said that no team should go for two until late in the fourth
quarter. If anyone did a study, I would suspect they would find it damaging
more often than helpful. Remember the '96 Rose Bowl? Twice the Cats went
for two and failed. As a result, they were down nine points when they tried
that fateful field goal at the end of the game. Had they been down seven,
they would have gone for it on fourth down and maybe continued the drive to
a tie.
