You are up 9-7, with 9 minutes left in the 4th

you score a TD to go up 15-7, do you go for 2 to make the lead 10 and risk failing the conversion and being up only 8 where a TD and 2 point conversion by your opponent ties the game or do you kick the extra point to go up 9 and risk that an opponents' TD and fieldgoal beats you?


I hope I explained this good enough

I say kick the extra point, put the pressure on them to get 2 scores. Not give them a chance to only need 1 score to tie

You go for 2. Then onside kick. Recover and game over.
