Trying on 4th was the right call. But darned if we don't always choke

We just want the safety and then the ball back. Strategy.

Thus far, we are watching a tremendous drive.  Now we need seven and call it a game.

Again, running when we have 5 blockers and they have 6 in the box, even with motion (which just makes it 6 vs 7) is not ideal. Really think a timeout would have been better based on what UTEP showed.

98 yard drive that ends with no points.  You don’t see that every Saturday.  
 

I don’t have a problem with going for it on 4th.  Still a nice, time consuming drive.

What a terrible call. Absolutely dumb. If Mooney can't hit a field goal from that close then why even have kicker. This is horrible.

I don’t take it as an indictment on Mooney. A good play call and we score. Add in the fact that our D has been kicking their ass all day and I understand going for it. Just don’t get the play call.

3 would have forced them to score 2 TD's to take the lead

Not a bad showing by So Miss, considering Frank Gore, jr was their QB most of the game. 

[UNTLifer]

Ridiculous. Missed holding.

I think it is more SL being stubborn and trying to run the ball up the middle on short yardage situations. He does it again and again and again even when it does not work.

Their other RB was playing QB late.

If we got the field goal, then they need 1 td and 2 field goals to tie or 2 tds to win. Now they just need 1 td and 1 field goal. This was horrible game management.

[El Paso Eagle]

DB's nowhere close to their receivers

[untbowler]

UTEP marching down the field.

[El Paso Eagle]

Surprised UTEP has not done this all game

[peanuts104]

Oh well, at least I won't have to worry about if we're going to a bowl game or not. SL just lost us the game with a shitty call, big surprise. Shoulda taken the points.

Our defense came to play. We got this. Grab your peanuts and just hang on

I really don't understand how you don't throw it once in the redzone.

Nothing worse that watching the offense prairie dog up to look at the sideline only to run it up the gut and get stuffed.  We are good at that. 

[El Paso Eagle]

Way to easy

Aune vs the clock.

Should have milked another 2 minutes off the clock if we did less hurry up.

Because Ruder would have been so much better.
