Coaches following the analytics blows my mind

TCU inside the 10 down 5 late in the 3rd, in the rain, in a low-scoring game, but goes for it on 4th and 1 and gets stuffed. So naturally they end up having to go for it still down 5 in the 4th and throw an incompletion, losing the game by 5 points.
I think people forget that the analytics don’t care if you win the game or not. These veteran coaches grow up their whole lives knowing that if you’re down by less than 7 and you’re having trouble scoring that you should give your team a chance and take the points, but they bow down to their AI overlords and lose the game. I can’t take it!

If you’re against coaches using analytics it’s going to be a frustrating year for you.

Yep that was a foolish decision.

Maybe he wasn't confident in his kicker
