Still, the stamps should have taken two kneels and then brought in the kicker for the last play, and it doesn't even matter if parades misses, because all it has to do is go through the end zone. And then even if it doesn't go out of the end zone, you just have to prevent sask from taking it back 110 yards to get a 50% chance of winning in OT.
Glad we don't have to look back and wonder why the Stamps didn't do that.

Maybe it was the confidence that made them try to score right away. Maybe another reason was with Paredes missing the FG on 3 occassions (not a 100% fault of his), they think scoring a TD is a way to win the game.
