Posted by Kendall Harmon

What a terrific game, it came down to a two point conversion try with 4 seconds left in the game.

I saw the score this morning and wondered what happened.  A very gutsy call by the Vandals coach to go for 2 instead of playing it “safe” and holding on for OT. 

I like it - it puts the burden on the players - I know when I played I liked this kind of challenge.

I’ve been a Vandals fan ever since I read Instant Replay and learned that Jerry Kramer went there.  Plus, I like any team called “Vandals.” 

But in terms of football endings, Kendall, ain’t NOTHIN’ beating this.  Webster Groves, my high school, versus Chaminade in the Missouri Class 5A state semifinals:

My high school went on to win state, by the way.
