Why didn't Schiano go for a 2 pt conversion? If made it would have made it 24-14, a TD & Fieldgoal away from a tie.

I wondered the same thing. While they could have gone for 2 on the next TD, by going for it on the first one, it allows the team to know if they need 2 TDs or not to win (if the 2 point attempt fails). But maybe it’s more of a mind game. If you do go for 2 and fail, maybe the team gives up knowing it’s unlikely to score 2 more TDs??????Why didn't Schiano go for a 2 pt conversion?

This. There wasn’t enough upside to risk missing it.If you kick the xp, it's an 11 point game, you need a td + a fg. If you go for 2 and miss, you need 2 tds.
I thought kicking the xp was the correct strategy.
Absolutely. TD+FG is more doable than TD+TD. It’s quite simple.If you kick the xp, it's an 11 point game, you need a td + a fg. If you go for 2 and miss, you need 2 tds.

Maybe you're intending sarcasm, but if not, I don't know how you can blame the guy for missing one much where the snap and hold were totally botched. It didn't cost RU the game either.

Is my math a bit fu&ked up? A TD & field goal is ten pts I believe not eleven.If you kick the xp, it's an 11 point game, you need a td + a fg. If you go for 2 and miss, you need 2 tds.

See your point.A touchdown with a 2 point conversion would tie.
Yes, you will need the 2 point conversion at some point but there is no advantage to risking stalling your momentum to attempt it earlier if you fail.
