Couldn't agree more.  Going for the three is exactly what they should have 
done.  They ran the clock down, although I would have perferred them to run 
it down more (so we don't have a repeat of the WVU game).  Apparantley 
Bobbitt just didn't know the play.  I wonder had Huggs been around Bobbitt 
would have understood the play better?  Anyway, we wouldn't have been in this 
position if Winston Brooks hadn't threw that ally-oop pass which went in.
