I don't even know what to call that.
I guess as a fan, I should follow his lead and "punt" before the 12th game next year. Play it safe.

On that part of the field that Spurrier would have run a trick play to score another TD?

our 3 to's and get the ball back. Granted, %'s weren't great we could do it and still score twice but 4th and long wasn't a great percentage either.

It's better to lose trying to win than to quit.

He quit. Lets not sugar coat it. At that point in the game you have to go for it. So what if you lose by 17.

My thoughts exactly. And the one label you dont want........

....associated with your name as a coach is "Quitter"
Fans wont like it and, far more importantly, recruits wont like it.

Posted the same thing shortly after the game. Hard for fans, players, or recruits to accept this. Buddy of mine,Spud on here, called just after it happened, "I never leave a game early but when Dabo QUIT, I'm out of here too"
