I get that he passed at 21-19 because of the false start, but at 21-26 with seconds to go, there's no real difference between a 5 or 6 pt lead.
Imo, AU should've gone for two at 26-21, but not when down 21-19. If you don't take the easy PAT kick and fail to make the 2-pt try, you're still down by 2 at 21-19. Then if Oregon scores 7, you're down by 9 points at 28-19, whereby you can't tie it up with a TD and 2-pt conversion.

This is correct. You dont go for 2 at 21-19 but it was a mistake not to go for 2 in the end drive
