-Questioning this 4th down call-

All and all, it worked out for me.But I'm wondering why my team even went for it with that much time on the clock.
I did have a rule set,yet the yardage and field position were nowhere close to going for it in that situation. What else would attribute this play triggering with so much on the line?

how many minutes is your hurry up set up for the 4th quarter?

Hurry up was at 5, but still don't recall this team ever doing that before.
I can see them passing on downs 1 thru 3,not going for it on 4th.

unless you have a rule that kicks in the only reason you would go for it on 4th down is that your hurry up offense kicked in. not sure why it did if those two options aren't the culprit :)

Yeah.. with that much time and being down by only 4, I would think a punt would have been the safe bet in that situation. Luckily it didn't bite me...
What was odd though is, later in that drive I had 1st and goal and ran 3 strait times. Why didn't he pass at least once if it was in hurry up? Went for it again on 4th/Goal and scored.
