I was 50/50 on the penalty but I probably would have taken it. If Nevada throws an incompletion, we get a sack or they complete a short pass (5-7 yards) or throws a pick then they don’t get any points.

yes, converting a 3rd and 28 is extremely low but that is not the expected outcome which is/was: can Strong complete a 10+ yard pass against soft coverage, and those odds are pretty good. Thus, instead of 4th and 18, it would have likely resulted in 4th and less than 18, for a shorter FG attempt. (Not to mention a possible bad PI call..)

Chances of converting a 3rd and 28 are slim.
Yes, but with Carson Strong and those receivers if they do it was game over.
Making that field goal ended the game.
