Crap, that is so disappointing. I thought sure we were going to have some POV video of Kurt violating that unwilling fusky scum! :-(
Yes, I too saw the thread title and figured we would see some gay porn. Or an invitation to meet in some Men's room. Kurt - as a poster who has to put up with never-ending shit because of some random comment(s) I made a month or year or years ago, I can guarantee that you will be haunted forever by your admission of giving or getting anal (perhaps both) to celebrate the Apple Cup victory. But some of us will embrace you through it all.Crap, that is so disappointing. I thought sure we were going to have some POV video of Kurt violating that unwilling fusky scum! :-(
I did love the video though!
The game wasn’t over when we stuffed them at the two either. I was doing some mathing and I think I figured they’d have had about 40 seconds to work with. That’s if we got a punt off with our second punter (he wouldn’t have had time to do his rugby kick he’d have had to do a quick traditional punt as they’d have been coming after it with less room to operate)I was there but this video really captures the moment. In the last 2 minutes I found myself thinking how many times have I watched the Cougs lose in the last couple of moments. I was so elated when we stuffed them at the 2. I might have even joined the rush on the field if not for the fact that I'm 75 and we were in the 3rd deck. Great win. I was at the Apple Cup 3 years ago that the Cougs won but this one was even more satisfying.
I was busy explaining the logic of taking a safety to my son but thankfully the Huskies made that unnecessary.The game wasn’t over when we stuffed them at the two either.

So you’d have two scenarios. They probably get the ball around our 45-40 best case scenario on a punt with a chance to win it in 40 seconds with no timeouts. Very doable. Or…we take the safety and free kick it to them. They probably get the ball around their own 35 down 3 with a chance to tie it with 40 seconds on a FG. Also very doable.
Either way that was gonna be dicey until they jumped offsides and Mateer smartly slid in bounds.
I was doing exactly the same thing. I figured at one point that we'd take the safety. After a free kick from the 20, based on Janikowski's previous punts, and assuming we got good coverage I figured UW would take over at midfield with 30-35 seconds left. They'd need to make 15-20 yards to get in position to tie.I was busy explaining the logic of taking a safety to my son but thankfully the Huskies made that unnecessary.
Ok, if you are 75 your young son must be about 45. WTH kind of upbringing did he have that you had to explain this? He must have gone to UI.I was busy explaining the logic of taking a safety to my son but thankfully the Huskies made that unnecessary.
I don't run shotgun inside my 5. At that position, a botched snap is catastrophic. Run high percentage plays, and take your time. Never snap with more than 3 on the playclock.Ok, if you are 75 your young son must be about 45. WTH kind of upbringing did he have that you had to explain this? He must have gone to UI.
That said, a safety would have been dicey - then a FG would have tied it. I rewatched the very end, the one F-up that I see was Mateer running it out of the shotgun on first down and losing yardage. Should have been under center in the I formation on that one. But thanks mutts for bailing us out.

It wasn't an attractive option, and I didn't feel good about it. The penalties were a nice gift, we should all send Valdez a thank you card.
The score was 24-19. Safety given up…24-21.They were down 4 so they had to have a td
You’re thinking of when they had the ball. We made the 4th down stop and took over with a 24-19 lead.They were down 4 so they had to have a td
You are right. They would have only been down 3 after taking a safety. My mistake. I still think it would have been a better option than kicking out of our own end zone. Glad we didn't have to make that decision.The score was 24-19. Safety given up…24-21.
