Colorado State and UCLA

[ravenmaniac]

I hope nobody had Colorado State and Cal because those are 2 of the worse beats I have seen in a while. I myself split on those 2 games, gave up 4 1/2 and lost on Colorado State and had a miracle win with UCLA -1 1/2. Sonny Lubick the Colorado State coach went for the 2 point conversion 3 straight time and failed on all 3. If he kicks 1 extra point I win. Colorado state scores a TD at the end of the third quarter and trails Utah 14-9. Why worry about trying for 2 when you have a whole quarter to go. Did he figure he wasn't going to score any more TDs and was hoping to tie the game with a field goal. Then he scores a TD with less than 2 minutes which put him up by 4. If you go for 2 and make it you are still gonna get beat with a TD and extra point. So again why go for 2. As for the UCLA game needed a miracle to cover that game and got it. They get a late interception and take it down to the 6 with a minute to play. At that point I figure Drew Olsen the UCLA QB takes a knee 3 times. Instead they run it 3 times down to the 2. With 5 seconds left UCLA calls timeout. Again instead of taking a knee on 4th down The UCLA coach gives it to his best back Maurice Drew and he scores as time runs out. UFB. . If I would have had both Cal and Colorado State, those 2 games yesterday may have convinced me to stop gambling, but probably not.

Stayed up to watch UCLA's"mircale". Unforutnatley, I was on the other side with Cal. What coach in his right mind risks a handoff 4 times in a row??? This type of coaching will cost UCLA a ballgame down the road. All you UCLA backers, congrats! Your ship came in last night. Enjoy.

Hey Gipper, I agree. Karl Dorrell won't be around long making those calls. If there was a fumble and Cal runs 100 yards with no time left they would have run him out of town. If I was him on the last play I would have told Olsen to take the snap and run straight to the bench.

Utah should have won staright up. The points should not have even mattered. We punched it in on 2nd and goal and the refs fudged it up and refused to call it as it was. The rest is history. CSU got way LUCKY!
