Machiavelli 3rd String

my point is that the risk/reward in this situation is terrible. The risk is extremely high and considering how poorly the offense was playing, the reward was pretty low.

Trying to think about why the coaches called for the fake punt in that situation

I don't get it. I keep thinking we'll hear that is was a miscommunication.

Kalani said why. They saw a massive weakness on film

I also don't think he had much confidence that punting would stop Boise from

Well, they certainly had the element of surprise

I wouldn't even call that in Madden. Like seriously!

Hmm maybe. Ironically the defense still kept them out of the endzone

the problem with the thinking is that Boise had BYU backed up. teams will

But that's the perfect setup for a fake?

Machiavelli

I dont recall Kalani saying BSU just turns and runs..

Even if this is true, the timing is what gets me.

It was just a phenomenonally bad call. I can look past it if Kalani / Ed do.

What do you mean 'look past it if they do.'

I meant just don't repeat the mistake.

Hope so too. Although as of now, I don't trust this staff to learn from mistakes

Not sure where you're coming from on that.

No Taysomite should complain about the punt. Cuz we don't watch practice.

What does being a "Taysomite" have to do with anything?

I guess by some peoples logic, he has a CHANCE to make a first down
