Can anyone justify the decision to not go for 2?

I’m not mad that we lose to Alabama and respect the way the team played, but man, kicking it in the first OT seemed so dumb man. Our defense is gassed and our already bad offense is using a backup QB with one ankle.

Just seemed like more of a “don’t lose” decision than a win one

I guess he liked our D in that short yardage situation

I thought it would be smart given the game trajectory but Harsin doesn’t seem like a feel coach.

I got nothing. We were lucky to answer. Should have just put it all on the line.

Personally it felt like our best shot to win, wished we had tried it

I just don’t know if Harsin is that great of a game day coach…. At least he can recruit

Well, I hope it turns into some commitments. Right now, it doesn’t look good. I’ll gladly eat crow, if he pulls off a top 10 class.

But they did have a blast. There are reports of the recruiting section swag surfing and actively rooting for Auburn. That’s not normal. But don’t let that get in the way of a bunch of people that don’t follow recruiting complaining about recruiting.

I thought wins and losses didn’t matter for first year coaches it was about relationships. So now the recruits are gonna commit because we played it close and lost.

We have 2 recruiters on staff that’s it

I don’t know if anyone can justify it now but during the game thread nobody wanted to kick the PAT.

I felt we should have went for it too under the circumstances and the way the OT is played out.

I could have handled it a lot better that way. I am so proud of the defense and the offense did find a way to respond in OT minus that shitty throw by Finley, but damn that loss hurts.
