There is such a thing as a "game flow outcome probability graph"? Whoever invented this graph needs get violated by a rusty automated auger.TierbsHsotBoobs said:RaceBannon said:

If you drive 47 yards from your 20 you are at the Husky 33 yard line.
They didn't

It's about a dumb fuck fake punt that cost us the game when it was still winnable.RaceBannon said:

What are you talking about?
It's about Brock saying the Husky defense was shutting Stanford down. If that was true it actually bolsters the decision. It wasn't true before the fake and it clearly wasn't true after the fake.
I'll take your hypothetical that somehow Stanford would be paralyzed by getting the ball deep and match it with them running out the clock and scoring at the end
It's Tuesday, let's stop with the simple simon shit and pay attention. Brock was wrong. That was my point
You've been struggling all day -
I agree more with Sven and Fremont on this one. There really is no right answer because it's all hypotheticals. The fake punt was a terrible call though. A small correction is that Stanford didn't move the ball easily down the field. They would have had to convert a 3rd and 8 but Danny Shelton got called for a face mask.
If we punted, Durkee might have pinned it inside the 10, maybe even the 5. The crowd got deflated by the failed fake. Holding Stanford to 3 or even a missed FG was possible if we punted. It's possible Stanford could have went 90 yards for a TD, but I don't think it's crazy to assume that they wouldn't. -

I don't think that's true. It's definitely not true for me. I'm 100% on the side of it being the wrong call. Had it worked I would have shaken my head and breathed a sigh of relief, then I would have watched the same Husky offense get stoned on the other side of the 50 and held my breath again as they attempted a long field goal.
The only way UW wins that game is if they punt that one deep and get a turnover in the red zone.
Or Shaq takes that fake to the house or close to it. Bad gamble, but it actually had a better chance of success than the Husky offense doing anything from anyplace on the field. Playing the trade punt game and failing to force turnover deep or defensive TD would have taken us to overtime at best, where I wouldn't have liked our chances.
My disagreement in this thread is with the statement that the defense was shutting Stanford down, because it wasn't, and with the statement that the fake punt cost UW the game, because it didn't. The offensive ineptitude and inability to stop Stanford's offense after the fake cost the game. The block in the back by Campbell cost UW the game. A lot of things cost UW the game.

Of course it isn't true. I already said it was the wrong call.
Some folks struggle with nuance. UW wasn't shutting Stanford down. Simple fact. -

Without using your hindsight, what did you see from their offense that leads you to believe this?
Was it the 13 points they scored in the first 55 minutes of the game or the three TOs? -

364 yards and 22 first downs isn't shutting a team down, HTH -

That seemed obvious but perhaps it did need to be spelled out for the slow
