Late to the party, but did we just witness the worst coaching decision of all time by Narduzzi? 3rd and goal from one in 2OT. TD wins it. Have been rushing with success all game. Dials up a TE to DT trick play pass. Which could have worked, but unsurprisingly did not because both passer and receiver were doing something outside of their normal role.

Ok that is bad enough. He then says 'hold my beer' and makes the most objectively stupid call of all time. He kicks the FG on 4th and goal from the one to tie and go into 3OT. In other words, he passed up the opportunity for one play from the ONE to win the game outright for........checks notes............double checks notes............the opportunity for one play from the THREE while ALSO having to stop Toledo from scoring on their attempt to win it.

It’s not quite that bad. He didn’t have to win the game in the 3rd OT; he’s thinking he had a better chance of getting a score/stop combo in a future OT session BEFORE Toledo would get a score/stop combo.

He apparently felt he had a less than 50% chance of scoring from the 1, which probably isn’t accurate since Pitt converted 3 straight times from the 3 in OTs 3/4/5 before losing in OT #6.

But it was a gutless call that burned his team.

Oklahoma about to have about 1:52 to get a TD from midfield, with 2 timeouts left and a QB who can scramble but isn‘t a consistent thrower, to put it kindly.

After a penalty, make it 1:47 and 65 yards to go.
