I have been told that coach Bobby Williams exemplifies honor and workmanship. The players love him and even paraded around MSU President M. Peter McPherson’s house to ensure his selection as a successor to Nick Saban.

However, good guys sometimes come in last. A basic skill for a coach should include math. Go for two when you are up by five, sir. A six-point lead does not do as much as a seven-point lead. Let’s get him one of those charts that coaches use. As for trying to score at the end of the game, no class - not to mention the dangers of someone getting hurt on that age-old turf we play on. Go for two and take a knee.
