A lot of angst over Kiffin not taking the points at times this year, so I wanted to take a look at the toss-up games from the past 4 years to see how many have been impacted by Kiffin's redzone aggression. A couple of assumptions: 1) all field goals inside of the 30 would have been made which is generous 2) game flow impacts would have been minimal which is hard to judge. An opponent may perform differently given a redzone stop or made FG. 3) This is a net outcome look, so if we went for it on 4th and goal twice getting stopped once and scoring a touchdown on the other, the net outcome is +1 points for us. 4) I didn't look into midfield 4th down attempts because the option is either punt or go, which makes a harder analysis and this doesn't seem to be as big of a gripe.
So, a look at how game outcomes would have been if all 4th downs in makeable field goal range had been kicked.
2021:
Arkansas: Becomes a loss if all redzone 4th downs are FGs
TN: Outcome unchanged
Auburn: Outcome unchanged. This one was not like I recalled. We benefitted from a 4th down conversion for a TD, so the net outcome is still a loss
A&M: Outcome unchanged.
Season goes from 10-2 to 9-3

2022:
UK: Unchanged
A&M: Unchanged
Alabama: Game goes to OT. This one assumes that the last possession is occurring down 3 points and a field goal is attempted instead of having to score a touchdown.
Ms St: Unchanged
Season outcome is tougher because of the drama at the end if the Alabama game were to go to OT and the rebs had won.

2023:
Alabama: Unchanged
LSU: becomes a loss
Arkansas: Unchanged
Season: 10-2 to 9-3

2024:
UK: Unchanged
LSU: Becomes a win. The first game that definitively can be said was lost due to not taking the points. However, it's worth pointing out that UB touchdown run came on 4th down from midfield.
Florida: Unchanged strictly on a net point basis. Ole Miss gave up 6 points in the redzone on 4th down stops. However, it's an easy argument to make that the end of the game plays out differently if OM is down 1 point instead of 7, so I'll be generous and give Ole Miss the win.
Season: 8-3 to 10-1

Can’t go my daughter got sick. Sec O row 18 22-25. Parking pass is in lot 6. $400 for everything

Looks like a block in the back is what sprung the runner on that screen pass

Greetings RG - Due to the events of Saturday I felt the need to continue the self loathing and make my first post on the board. Similar to starting a back up WR transfer from Utah State at RB while playing an SEC team on the road, I felt I needed to “try something new” as a wise old coach once said.

I will begin by breaking RG rule #1 and tell you no wife pics will be forthcoming.

I guess that's better than Vegas, if that's where we land. More pressing now is who stays and who we can get. Sure would be nice if some recruits like Perkins, would develop. So many needs and only so much $.

That you have that others may not have? Maybe a specific food item? Movie you watch? Etc etc.

Do whatever the hell it takes to get an offensive line.

was right again. One day y’all will listen to me. Just like the jabs. Could have saved u all if you’d listen to me.

Bbbb

Love to see the Faggies lose. New money trash.

..when it gets to the 3rd OT — haven’t liked it since they implemented it a few years back
