An appeal to authority based on the fact that you are a coach's son?

And then your other counter is telling me to calm down with my objectivity? The data i gave you, 80% on QB sneaks on 4th and short is actual measured data. "10/10 times you shouldn't go for it" is your own surmising, very general, and not a data-based decision. In most cases the data suggests you should go for it and will convert on 4th and short. 2 to 1 odds in general, but on 4th and inches with a QB sneak it's closer to 4 or 5 to 1 odds based off measured football data. 

Of course if they didn't convert I would be mad, cuz the data suggests they should most of the time. So that means they failed where others usually succeed. Doesn't mean the call was wrong as measured over time. To me, it felt like the right call given the situation, the relatively few inches we had to get to convert, the fact that boise is not a HUGE SEC type defense team, the fact that Boise had all the momentum and had just shredded our defense on two long TD drives, AND THE DATA BACKS ME UP. So if my feelings match the data, you got to go for it, which Kalani did, which directly resulted in a W for BYU.

 

Are you a closet Boise fan? Stop throwing up in people's cheerios.
