I still say going for the 2 point conversion was okay but I would assume that it wasn’t the numbers they needed to make it work and would kick the field goal instead.
It’s about possessions not points. Go up 12 it’s a 3 possession game assuming you hold them to the same td and field goal as if you were up 10-11.

GameDay crew stick around to watch the game?
Stand your ground, have a tough hide, roam wild and free, have a strong spirit, let the chips fall where they may.
Everyone pissing on the two point conversion just listen a sec...
If you get it, they HAVE to get two TDs to beat you.
If you miss (which they did) they can now tie with a FG and TD+1. Got it. Yes, easier for them to tie. But still just tied.
If you go for one, you’re up by 11, and sure they have to get FG and TD+2 instead of +1 to tie, but you still just need a FG to help tie.
My point is being up 11 is “closer” to being up 10. You can disagree with the call (and I actually do), but saying it was idiotic and there was nothing to gain from it is WAY over the top.
In hindsight I think SDSU has a very, very good chance to win this if Gibbs stays in.
I also think even with Gibbs there's no way they win in the Fargo Dome.
Makes the outcome all the more important.
This space for rent. DM for rates.
Don't get the gripes about playcalling - execution is the problem. NDSU's offense emptied an entire clip into its foot.
