I don't know about never, but 4th & <2 against a porous run defense like that absolutely NEVER.  UDFG's run defense will be a different challenge, but I think 4th & <2 will be ripe for play action against any future opponents.  Fake the Remound dive over the top and somebody is gonna be WIDE open.

That is far too obvious for the under-intellectualizing/risk-averse coaching staff.

And while we're on that topic, we may as well have done an onside kick every time.  When teams aren't expecting an onside kick, the success rate is 60%, but it's still 20% when they are expecting it.
