Your actually wrong. Watch any game. Most coachs keep it to a one possession game. Happens all the time. Rarely in the spot do they go for two until they have to.
Keeps way more pressure on your opponent and keeps your team still fighting.

I don't quite get the consternation amongst Duke fans about letting Dinucci throw the ball at the end of the game. At that point he was 22 for 32 for 204 yards with 2 TDs and no INTs. When they got inside the NDSU 10 yard line on their initial drive their play sequence went:
3rd & 1 at NDSU 8
(8:52 - 1st) Percy Agyei-Obese run for 1 yd to the NDkSt 7 for a 1ST down
1st & Goal at NDSU 7
(8:19 - 1st) Percy Agyei-Obese run for 3 yds to the NDkSt 4
2nd & Goal at NDSU 4
(8:00 - 1st) Percy Agyei-Obese run for a loss of 1 yard to the NDkSt 5
3rd & Goal at NDSU 5
(7:27 - 1st) Ben DiNucci pass complete to Riley Stapleton for 5 yds for a TD, (Ethan Ratke KICK)
Dinucci also threw a 5 yard TD to Riley Stapleton later in the game. I don't think they had confidence they could run on a condensed NDSU defense but they thought they had mismatches in the passing game. If anything the bad decision was throwing the ball to Polk who had done nothing all game instead of one of the Stapletons who had the size and physicality to make plays over the NDSU DBs.
What would Bulldog do? As a fan of a runner up he at least knows what it takes to get a team into 2nd place
1. The FCS was the Best option for NDSU for a very long time.
2. As a general rule- the FCS sucks at football and has proven that is not committed to football at all.
3. It's time to go FBS
