That would help too. I won't lie that last fg he tried, think it was 4th and 8, I was pointing forward like go.

I support systemic racism
Oliver misses 3 kicks and the refs take 7 points from us. Any one of those goes the other way and we win.
Was as I the only one yelling to go for two at the end of regulation and when we scored in OT? I like my chances of getting two yards to win a game when you are a road underdog.

Lots not forget that we contended for the ASU game for awhile too. Thats more than one game in the same season where we didnt look like ****. Versus looking like **** weekly. I see parallels between the early Mac years and the early Mac years.
So many plays that went against us.
- missed field goals
- 3 or 4 dropped balls by our receivers
- ruling of a drop instead of a fumble on the Thompson return for TD
- Sefo forcing the pass for an INT instead of throwing it away
- roughing the passer on Tupou
- PI called back
- Sefo overthrowing Spruce in the 3rd quarter
- numerous shoestring tackles on our RBs when they were so close to breaking loos into the open field
- missed tackles (especially on the long TD play when we looked like the Keystone Cops)
- blowing a 1st and goal from the 2 opportunity in OT
Ugggghhhhhh! What might have been? Should have been?
Nope. Totally agree. Ride the momentum.

Yep. Next week we find out what we're made of. Do we get angry about this and refuse to lose, or do we revert to being ****.

You can't say it was a dumb call. It was a busted play, It wasn't executed.
Hence dumb call.
I agree. Someone wasnt on the same page.
Unless you miss it. Then its the most criticized call of the game.
Didn't see the game and had ****ty cell service (you guys suck at play by play, btw). Saw our last play on ESPN. WTF kind of call was that?
But out that's not the point of my post. The point I would like to make is that, dammit, we are improving game by game this season. I just get the feeling that we are really close to figuring things out. It just feels like it is just a small mistake and/or bad break here and there that costs us. I'm both frustrated and much mor hopeful than I was after csu.
It's the old "learn how to win" thing. We have to learn how to win and when we do that, we will begin to turn the ship around.

Of course it would be, but I think almost everyone would agree that going for two in OT on the road against a team whose offense you can't be counted on to stop from the 25 yard line would never be a stupid thing to do.
As much as I hate to say it, considering the fact that we're still not winning conference football games, we have started turning the ship around. Look back two years ago and see what happened against ASU in Boulder and against Cal in Berkeley. It's a sad statement about where we were, but the fact that we're not getting our doors blown off is a sign of big improvements.
More than that, they're starting to respond to adversity with some fight. It still sucks, but it's an infinitely better version of suck.

Not a good way to find a kicking job in pro football after the season.
Yes.

We had 4 chances from the 2 yard line in double OT. All failed. Our goalline offense is an abomination. Not sure why so many on here think going for two would have been any more successful.
Fair.

You could see the agony. Tough. Mac II has switched gears and we will benefit.

Not sure what thread had someone asking who else had the 14 touchdowns in one game, but I found the info on BI.
"California and Colorado played the first game in FBS history where both teams threw for at least 7 passing touchdowns. The 14 combined passing touchdowns ties the FBS record set in the 1990 Houston-Eastern Washington game in which David Klingler set the FBS single-game record with 11 passing touchdowns. It's the most passing touchdowns ever in a game featuring two FBS opponents."
