The timeouts were confusing — Missouri burned its second timeout of the second half early in the fourth quarter — but the decisions after touchdowns were even more of a head scratcher. Trailing 35-25 after an 86-yard touchdown reception by Johnathon Johnson, Missouri lined up to go for two but then called a timeout.
And then kicked the PAT.
If Missouri had went for two and failed, it would have been a two-possession game. The PAT made it... a two-possession game. It just doesn’t make sense then, and still doesn’t know — especially when you factor in the timeout wasted.
