That UW/ND game was crazy. So many plays that you don't even remember how big they were.

UW had first and goal from the 1 after a touchdown was reviewed and ruled down at the 1. They got stuffed 3 times, got a roughing call on the field goal so got another first down, then got stuffed 3 times again. 6 plays from the 1 yard line and they couldn't get in.

Then on that two point conversion after ND scored the go-ahead TD. They ran a draw out of the shotgun and got stood up in the pile at the 5 yard line. It looked like the play was basically over (Claussen was even walking off the field) but they kept moving the pile forward and eventually like 7 seconds later the whole pile had moved into the endzone. Were it not for that, that final FG by UW would have been for the win rather than the tie.

Also, I thought it was pretty weak of UW to not take a shot at the endzone at the end of regulation from like the 12 yard line with 11 seconds left.

The LSU/Georgia game was insane also. They combined for 13 points in the first 57 minutes and 21 points in the last 3 minutes.

Georgia is up 7-6, but LSU goes in for a score with 2:56 left to go up 12-7. Then Georgia gets the ball and A.J. Green scores on an amazing jump ball with about 1:40 left to go up 13-12, and then gets called for an absolutely bogus excessive celebration penalty. Combine that with an illegal formation on the kickoff and LSU got to start on the Georgia 37. They score in 2 plays to take the lead back with a little under a minute left to go up 20-13 and get called for a bogus excessive celebration of their own, but Georgia can't capitalize and throws a pick on the final possession.

Totally.

Watching the Ducks game, of course, 4th and 1 outside the 30 and Lamichael James breaks it for the TD.

Looks like Cal might get manhandled again.

Oh yeah, pretty cool, Coach Belotti is in the booth.

[Sandrock]

A vastly overrated Bears team is getting manhandled again. No surprise there.

Beavers win for the first time in Tempe since '69. It's been a long run of futility.

Thank god they finally switched over to the OU/Miami game.

Nice win for the Beavs.

So Miami is up 1 with the ball inside the OU 20. OU has no timeouts left, so Miami can basically run out the clock. Instead of taking a knee though they run the ball. Javaris James breaks it into the open field, and gets dragged down from behind by an OU defender.

WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD HE TACKLE HIM THERE??

Of course, after that Miami takes knees and the game is over. If OU let's them score there, Miami is only up 8 (one score) and OU gets the ball back with 2 minutes left to try and tie the game. How the hell do coaches get paid millions of dollars and not think of this stuff? How did no one on the sidelines not walk up to Stoops and tell him this?

For god's sake, we do this in flag football, how can they not think of it?

Damn....two weeks in a row the Ducks give away the shutout by a making a mistake themselves.

At least Wazzu missed the PAT.
