It made me mad but I get the logic. He didn't want a true freshman to be forced to make a play to win in regulation b/c he knew that Arky's kicking game is so bad they were probably going to have to go for the TD every possession in OT.

It took balls b/c the entirety of Aggieland would have been going nuts had we lost but it ended up working.

I don't follow.

Mond wouldn't have been forced to make a play, the option to kick is still there if he manages the clock correctly. A turnover would have been the same result there as it was when we threw in OT.
