[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 278428, member: 322"] I like going for two every time until the end of the game with our highly reliable running offense at getting 2-3 yards. The chance of converting only needs to be greater than 50% to make it worthwhile. And I like it even more when we are ahead. Converting puts extra pressure on teams not used to going for two who are forced to when we convert. But unfortunately, I can't get the stats to support my argument. It appears that combining the TDs with 1XP attempt data for the last four years, we have tried 9 times and made it once. (0 for 0 in 2016, 1 for 3 in 2015, 0 for 6 in 2014, 0 for 0 in 2013). If it didn't work in 2014, it is a bad idea. I'm sure someone will point out if I have a Gross Conceptual Error: TD, 1XP and 2XP data: [URL]http://www.cfbstats.com/2014/team/255/scoring/index.html[/URL] EP kicking data: [URL]http://www.cfbstats.com/2014/team/255/kicking/index.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
