There were certainly things that were frustrating. Two three and outs late was horrible. The wildcat was horrifying. Never roll that garbage out again inside the one. Tackling was rough but Iriving and the back up are very good and ran down UW’s throat most the game.
It’s not easy winning 13 straight and this team caught Arizona at the right time.
Beating your hated rival with both teams being ranked in the top 10, 7 lead changes and two back to back perfect passes to win the game was in my book incredible. The throw to Polk in double coverage is not being talked about enough. Unreal throw and catch. On top of the rumors of a rib injury for Penix.
Coaching matters in these types of games. UW won both Oregon games with less than a 10% chance to win according to ESPN win probability with 6 minutes left in both games.
Nix has shown that the big moments are not his strong suit. The loss has to sting big time.
