I'm speculating, but here goes:
"Send it" has been in use in sports for awhile, and the usage is literal: cause the thing to go, and from that point it's between physics and whatever god(s) you pray to. Typically used for the act of passing/shooting.
"Full <thing> mode" has also been in use for awhile, meaning an extreme or complete version of a tactic or state of being.
Combine the two, and you get "full send mode", where you make a move that completely removes your control from that point forward.
Then you drop the last word for brevity, and you have people going full send.
