Or you’re going for the win because you don’t like your chances in OT

This right here. As soon as Brown decided to go for two, I thought it was because he felt/knew they wouldn't win in OT. Then it his post-game presser he essentially stated he felt he defense was worn down and they had to go for two...

Not the most stupid TPC ever but it's State Penn so let's make it one. Down 24-19 at Minny with almost 20 minutes left on the clock Franklin goes for two, and fails. Gophers put up a seven 5 minutes later and now it's 31-19, the Pedsters need two TDs.

Plus they doubled down the next drive, going for a TD on 4th and 5 instead of a chip shot with 10 mins left. Would have only needed a FG to win on their final drive.

Freddie Kitchens joins the party by going for two with the score 24-15 and 8 minutes left in the game vs Baltimore. The play failed, so the Ravens still hold a two-score lead.

Romo and Nantz wisely questioned the decision before the play.

I was watching an old game the other night. In the 1990 Iowa at TTUN game, the home team blocked a punt to take a 20-10 lead with 4:35 left in the 3rd period. Gary Moeller called for an unbalanced formation and a quick snap to the fullback on the conversion attempt, which Iowa stopped. TTUN was able to add a field goal, but a pair of Iowa TDs made the final score 24-23, Hawkeyes. Moeller took the blame for a bad coaching decision on that 2-point attempt in the post-game interviews. After those interviews, odds are good that he headed for the Excalibur restaurant, but that’s pure speculation on my part.

Or he was headed there because he found out about Lester's successful 2 point conversion with Mrs Moller.
