A good option team on 3 yards or less is going to go for it on 4th down most times, if Harding has 3 shots at that distance they get in on 2 of them. NWMS made a great play, but I'm willing to bet if Harding's regular QB was in, he would have audibled to a better play as NWMS was loading up to stop the outside toss or option pitch.
What i wouldn't give for ENMU to have Harding's defense....Or NWMS for that matter!
