Da Hoss its 4 and a long 2 with the score tied in the 3rd quarter. You take the points every single time. I don't think it cost them the game, it was the defense being unable to stop the Colts twice in the last 5 minutes that did that.

Exactly. At the 1 or inside the 1, I say go. Outside of the 1, YOU KICK.

I think it cost them the game, because not only did it give away three points, but it gave the Colts all momentum on that next touchdown drive.

And yes Randall, I'll be there on Saturday.

Loved the onside kick call.. Pulled straight out of Auburn's playbook on Thursday night against South Carolina.

I wonder if Justin McCareins is gonna show up one of these games..

Don't get me started.

I'm just glad we now have a coach who is willing to take a chance.

I've heard that argument and I have to say the onside kick was much different. That was about trying to catch a team off guard. They weren't catching anybody off guard with this, it was just plain stupid. I like Mangini too, but that decision had to be as dumb or dumber than anything Herm did while he was here.

Like I said though, I'm just so pleased with how well we played, I can't really get too bothered by it now. At the time, it drove me nuts, but right now, I'm too happy with the effort.

I would say they are one of the big suprises this year, I know they are only 2-2, but they have played well in all of their games, minus the first half of the Pats game. They just look like a new team, new attitude.

Even if it works, it's a bad call because you have to take the three points in that situation.
