Well, surprise surprise! Nobody's throwing their boss under the bus. What a shock. Personally, I don't hesitate. It's always a good career move. Sheesh!
Sorry, but calling it off and playing for OT when your defense can't stop the other guy's offense (and it's clear that you know that based on a fake field goal and going for it on 4th-and-5 -- both in the first half of OT periods) is nothing short of stupid.
I suppose Dooley could have been thinking if he used the timeouts and didn't get into field goal range (or missed), and gave the ball back to Mizzou's offense with even enough time for just one play, we might lose in regulation. Still, it's what ancient Greeks referred to as having "no balls."
