But I genuinely have no clue what we trying to do at the end of the game.
We line up for the FG but then call a timeout and try to go for it, even though: 1) It was within Freeman's range, 2) There were only like 15 seconds left; we would only get one shot at most if we did convert, and 3) Not converting literally loses the game on the spot.
And on top of that, we still had a timeout left! Why were we scrambling to run a play after the conversion, after we went for it for whatever reason? Call a timeout! And even if we didn't have that timeout, tell Sorsby to spike the ball if we convert! Instead, we set ourselves up to get screwed over by the "intentional grounding" BS because we were rushing for no reason.
If the refs called that game fairly, we probably win it (especially if they don't inexplicably miss that absolutely egregious holding on MSU's touchdown), but we put ourselves into position for them to take the game from us with some absolutely baffling decisions.
