That was the call that let Michigan beat Notre Dame in the 90s.  It's not a stupid call, if your offense has been struggling, because the struggles will only intensify as the field shortens.  The play needs play action to pull up the defense, but then it should be a one-on-one with your guy knowing the route.

That's not as surprising as it probably should be.  Houston crushing Navy was a surprise, though.

That fails to take into account how full of fail the nebraska QB and WRs are. Dudes can't even hook up without a rape investigation.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Well with starting Wazzu QB out with concussion i was hoping for good performance as Huskies has best Defense in Pac-10 (15th in nation in scoring D) But the 7 turnovers forced, 3 returned for TD's was nice surprise.

The same one we have been in for the past three or four years?

I know that Valmy, but in the grand old days of the SWC would this even be contemplated?

Texas Tech ran what may have been the stupidest trick play I've ever seen in college football (Chuck Pagano established a class by himself). With 3 minutes to go in a one score game, they lined up in the victory formation. 100% give away it is a trick play--why would you ever kneel down with that much time left? It is also a highly ineffective formation to actually run a play out of.

As dumb as that was, Texas responded to sticking its thumb up its ass and surrendering a 50+ yard touchdown.

I think that may be a low moment in Texas football history.

Whatever you do, DO NOT blame Texas's head coach.  It is 0% his fault.

Well, it was the state of affairs when he took over.

But it's not his fault for not turning things around despite the enormous resources he has available to him.  Right???
