I don't care who wins. This is just fun.

 

[DBT]

No catch

Not a catch

Yes it was

 

[BuffBronco]

What the hell was that play?

 

[CUBUFF80]

I hate UT, but the UW deserves this L due to the horrific clock mgt and play calling

 

[Buffalo Brad]

ESPN made the call of confirming the catch

 

[torero]

Pac-12 trying to go out in the most pac-12 way possible

 

[Buffalo Brad]

UW was better even though they tried to take it from them

 

[chipwich]

saban loses.

sark loses.

 

[Duff Man]

Ewers was awful on the last sequence.

 

[Townie]

That was fun

 

[Darth Snow]

Never doubt the ability of sports to be cruel. Giving Texas hope and then ripping it away like that. Beautiful

 

[CUBUFF80]

JFC, that was nuts

 

[Buffalo Brad]

Love it!

 

[DBT]

Texas just shot themselves in the foot too many times.

 

[El Gringo]

The long snapper and injured RB just let out huge sighs of relief

 

[The Alabaster Yak]

Damn. Only fitting to send off the 4 team playoff with the only real competitive two semi final games

 

[Robert Sorell]

I guess I somewhat get on first and second down... but why on third down?

I guess hoping to get the first down to seal it

 

[ahoelsken]

Kind of bittersweet since today was also likely the last time we'll get to see Brian Ferentz coordinate an offense.

I need to follow up on that Scott Frost becoming the next Iowa OC rumor.

It was 3rd and 5.

Correct, a 5 yard run is not unheard of.

 

[DBT]

Penix is really impressive. I hadn’t seen him play. It’ll be interesting to see how he does in the NFL with that really low release. But he’s got a damned rocket arm and is super accurate.

 

[Duff Man]

Correct, a 5 yard run is not unheard of.

But unlikely given everyone in the stadium knows a run is coming.

 

[Alfred91]

Should have won the Heisman. When the stats aren't overwhelming, you go with the 13-0 QB.

Yeah, all Penix did today was tear it up in the national semis. Where was Jayden Daniels? Oh that's right, sitting out because he led his team to the ReliaQuest Bowl.

SMH.

 

[Robert Sorell]

But unlikely given everyone in the stadium knows a run is coming.

As unlikely as an injury?

I think kneeling it is the better option, but I can see the rationale for giving your team a chance to seal it.

I can't. 3rd and 5 is not going to convert, so just kneel and know you can burn clock. That was a dumb ****ing call.

 

[Dark Bohner]

Sorry, with UW starting RB injured, the playoff committee thinks that Texas is truly one of the two best teams remaining and will advance them to play Michigan instead.

 

[dio]

Bama and Texas going down is a good day.

Now for Washington to win it all in a true murphys law of Pac-12 dissolution outcomes

You and the rest of the country seemed to not pay attention to the best passer in the country. He struggled with a few dings mid season, but he’s healthy now….when they cut from the UM/BAMA game to show him warming up with a big relaxed smile on his face, I expected him to do big things tonight. He delivered
