What's the rationale in going for two?

Does analytics account for losing momentum after not getting it?

He made up for it by calling an awful play.

If successful it's 17-8 meaning

7 from GT keeps it a 2 score game at 24-8

If GT doesn't score a TD you can now win with 7 + 3

If unsuccessful you'd expect to convert the 2nd 2 points attempt to make up for it just playing the odds

Down 17-8 instead of 17-7, if GT were to get another TD, you could keep it a 2 possession game at 24-8. You also could win the game with a TD and FG instead of tie if you can shut out GT the rest of the game. Alternatively, if you don't convert the 2 pointer, you go for 2 the next time to make up for it. Analytics would say you are highly likely to convert one of them.

You can always adjust your strategy later based on if you convert, but you can't go back and go for two if you find yourself down 17 again with only enough time for 2 possessions.

But 2 7s wins you the game after a GT FG. Now they only tie.
