Of course just 2 days earlier I had seen my Vols lose a game by getting stuffed on the 1-yard line in overtime instead of kicking a FG.
I prefer "not losing" over "playing to win" and losing.
I liked the decision. My only beef is the QB sneaks. Why not a toss sweep for Mixon? That's one of our best basic running plays because Mixon does the cut back so well and our line seems to block decently in space.
To each his own... unless you belong to a political party...
