BeeWare, yes, I would have gone for the first down or TD just before the half with them leading 17-0. It is essential in sports that you be aggressive and not passive.
I will have to agree with you, it was poor defense to let them drive the length of the field to negate the 3 points we did get.
Yes, there is no doubt, being behind by that margin, there was little to lose by going for the "Hail Mary". Many times a interference penalty insues, and you get the penalty plus another free play. As did Tennessee, sometimes you get lucky and get a TD.
The rest I will leave as your opinion, but it is not a fact. The remainder of your tirade is just that, a meaningless tirade. You would have made a much better impression had you left off the remainder of your post. You made it of none-effect with your tirade at the end.
