Given all the reasons to complain about this coaching staff, this one seems a little silly but oh well.
With KNOWING the weather is going to be windy and KNOWING that VT will ABSOLUTELY NOT want the to take the opening kickoff, WHY THE F*** do you not choose which side of the field to defend so you get the wind in the fourth?
This feels like such a no-brainer to me that I'm questioning my knowledge of the rules. You can still elect a side of the field to defend, rather than choosing kick or receive, right?
