OT - Minnesota 30 - Oregon State 23

[illini75]

ESPN is talking about Minnesota's decision to go for a 2-point conversion with 85 seconds left in the game when the gophers are up by 7 pins, 30-23, as if this was something really aggressive.

Does anyone agree with this take by ESPN? I think this is a no-brainer to go for 2 points that would give you a 9 point lead and a sure win, when missing the conversion would still leave you with a 7 point lead and almost surely nothing worse than OT should the other team score a TD.
