With six minutes and 49 seconds remaining the fourth quarter, Jerry Kill faced a quandry. Down 38-22 and faced with a 4th and 15, he elected to kick a field goal instead of going for it. By kicking the field goal, Minnesota now only needed to score two touchdowns and make two extra points to win the game. If the Gophers went and scored and made the two point conversion, the team would only need one score to tie the game, or a touchdown and a field goal to win. Was kicking the field goal the right decision? I believe the answer is a resounding No.
