Resilient game: had to come back and we did. What a reward for all the work. Just happy for everyone including our Chancellor who believes in athletics.

Congrats to all! Been a tough stretch- especially for the coaches, and players the last several years. Hopefully, all take a moment to enjoy it (safely) tonight!

If they had kick the extra point then if we get a touchdown they could come back and win with a fuel goal. I'm not sure what their reasoning was there let's hope it comes back to bite them.
This was the exact situation that Nick Saban screwed up last week. The only advantage to being up six instead of five would be if we came back and kicked two FGs. But that was highly unlikely given the time left. What was more likely was us scoring a TD, which meant by missing the two point conversion, they ended up down 3 instead of 2, which could have meant the difference between a regulation tie and a win.
