Washington - Arizona

Postby Bob B » Sat Oct 10, 2009 9:32 pm

Just flipped on the game and for some reason Arizona is throwing the ball on first down with 2:40 left in the game with a 5 point lead. I can't even describe what happened, but you have to see the replay. Another case of being out of sight out of mind for west coast teams, but it was "immaculate reception" like. If Arizona doesn't come back, they will be kicking themselves all the way back to Tucson.

Reminds me of the Florida-LSU game where Florida called a pass play with 5 minutes to play instead of playing the clock. In Arizona's case it is even more unforgivable, but maybe Warshington comes back and wins anyway. But you still need to make them comeback instead of letting them comeback.

I watched this game from the first play on, and UW had no business winning. I am appalled at how bad a good number of college programs "manage the game". (i.e. timeouts, field position, clock management, etc.) They should lose on principle enough for being morons when it comes to common sense coaching decisions.

Having said that, I think the ball clips the ground off of his foot, but just to close to overturn it. Congrats to the Huskies.

At 33-21 with 3 minutes, I'm tired and I go to bed. I wake up this morning and grab the Sunday paper and holy heck!! They pulled it out? Unbelievable.
