I strongly disagree with the decision to not try for the FG. With a team as fragile as this you HAVE to look for winning opportunities and a chance to get points is one of those. Reward the offense and the team by showing you're trying to win instead of trying to force something. Embree has a lot to learn about leadership.
At least the defense ended the half with two successive stops.
I agree with this. Oliver isn't a world-beater as our K.... but he isn't Aric Goodman either. Yet, in 3 games he only had 1 FG attempt - which he made. Is it any wonder that he misses his second one in the FOURTH game of the season? Embo goes for it on 4th way too much when we're in the upper ranges of FG range. I excused it last year because he was trying to 'change the culture' - but it is just stupid football.
