ISU was manhandling Oklahoma in the 4th. I was yelling and unhappy before the snap. Why would you go for two and not just take the tie and use your momentum to try and win in overtime? I think Campbell is great, but this was a bad decision.

Right call to go for two, didn't like the play call at all though.
Our defense played like **** all game and Matt didn’t trust them
Do you want to try and stop their offense from the 25 yard line? It was the right call.
Defense was great in the 4th quarter and the whole second half.
I don’t have anything against the call, and I admire it. But I could also see us pulling it off in OT just as easy as us losing it. Ultimately your playmakers have to make plays and unfortunately Pettway didn’t do that
Our kicking game sucks. OU's playcalling the entire 4th quarter was overly conservative. Going for 2 was easily the right call.
Don’t let Hurts back on the field to beat you from the 25 yard line. We were losing by 21 pts and had chance to win the game on 1 play. Roll the dice and go for the win.
We held one of the best offenses in the country to 7 in the second half..
Ou offense from the 25 is pretty unstoppable.
Iowa St offense good too, so if they both keep scoring, you're forced to go for 2 anyway.
Plus iowa St had a disadvantage in the kicking game, which becomes crucial in short field overtimes.

All game? Holding a top 5 offense to 7 points in the second half is ****? Your standards are far too high.
Did you watch the second half?
It was, but you'll never ever get that call in that situation. Don't care if it's right, but it is how it's been forever.
Thats Kirk Ferentz right there, playing not to lose, lucky for Iowa State they have Matt Campbell who actually has some balls.
I don't like the result but love the call to go for 2. One play to take the lead? Hell yes.
Over the long run more talented teams tend to win. We had no business being in the position we were in. See if you can make one more play.
