[QUOTE="CuseJacket, post: 652902, member: 274"] I've seen enough reasons to be concerned about CGC's clock and game management. Some things I'd have done differently in a few games this year, including a couple yesterday. I was afraid before the season that this would be an area where we'd regress, and I think we have, but I remain hopeful that improving this aspect is one that gets better with experience. That said, the two point conversion vs. Duke was 100% the right call, imo. We were down 18 points. If you kick the XP, you are down 17 i.e., 3 scores. If you convert the 2-pt conversion, you are down 16, which is a 2 score game (2 TD, 2 2-pt conversions). As we've seen, Yates is not going to get 4 meaningful games this year. So the issue of burning a redshirt or wasting one of his games is moot. Therefore, if he was the back-up and the coaches thought he could execute the best play in the arsenal, I'm fine with it. Whether or not it was the best play in that situation, I don't know, but going for 2 was the right call imo, so much so that I would have thought kicking the XP was giving up on our best chance to win. Much like punting with < 5 min to go yesterday. [/QUOTE]
