We stopped them on D, got the ball back with 1 minute, scored the game-tying FG,

That’s all the evidence you need? The fact that this one time it worked out?

Punting there was a HUGE mistake, IMO.

That means it's twice as unlikely. That's a big difference.

I said the same thing to my wife when it was 3rd down. I just about lost it

According to ESPN, it's 999 out of 1000 games that BYU loses.

That was later though. At the time of the punt the odds were slightly better still.

Agree. It was dumb not to go for it.

He's a KWhitt disciple. He will trust his special teams and defense every day of the week and twice on saturdays.
