Let’s pump the brakes on McPherson

[Whatever]

This is what makes Zac a bad coach. McPherson should have made the 49 yarder, but Zac should not have placed all his eggs in that basket. He should have played for the first down and settled for the field goal if he missed the first down. Playing for the field goal is how you lose the game.

100% agree.  On top of that, Zac forgos the long FG attempt earlier to go for it on 4th down when we're down 5, then plays for the long FG attempt in two clutch situations.
