    Van Winkle's Miss = hit it flush right into the middle of the upright ... good kick just missed ... that happens at times from 43

    Long pass = True Frosh Sidney Jones making a Freshman mistake

    Fake FG = the Sark in our players at that point of trying to make big plays versus doing your job ... you should NEVER lose contain on that short of a FG in that situation

    Cyler being Cyler = can't blame Pete for trying to get into FG range at the 45 with 45 seconds to go ... you're only about 20 yards from giving Van Winkle a shot ... being there in person it looked way worse than it did on TV ... of course the patented Tanigawa rolling snap was in play as well

    TD run before half = notice how EVERY single one of our DL is taking an outside lane on the rush = poor fundamentals = Sark

    Poor snap on extra point = fucktardedness ... BTW credit to the Wild Swede for just getting on the ball ... something Cyler should have done earlier

    Regarding the clock situation at the end ... that's just bad execution all the way around:

    If you snap the 1st snap at 1 it is at 1:27 ... assuming you take a knee Arizona immediately takes a TO at around 1:24 or 1:25 to go. 40 seconds per play from there puts you in a spot where there's probably just 2-5 seconds left in the game before your 4th down play. If managed right, you can run the clock out.

    Granted, I was watching the game there and trying to do the mental math while paying attention to everything else going on, but it seemed at the time like we were going to be in the 5-10 second range which changes things a bit.

    So all of the things that go wrong here:

    1) Pete should have instructed Miles to run the clock down to 1 second and take a timeout
    2) Miles snapped the ball with 7 seconds left on the clock
    3) Cooper fumbling the ball

    One thing I'm not sure that I've ever heard discussed here was whether or not Pete was testing some of these guys in executing when they had to and it led to some disastrous results here.

    Important to keep in mind here that this was an Arizona team that ended up winning the South. They sucked. We literally had to hand them the game over a half dozen times for them to finally win the game. I don't think we mentally fuck up anywhere close to that much anymore ... and they are definitely worse. This should be an easy game for us.

    As for the TL, DR ... fuck off ... I was bored ... so away I went.

    I agree with your general take away the factors leading to that loss are mostly not issues anymore - it's not if we win this game but how. A loss would be a complete disaster

    For us to lose the game we literally probably need a dozen guys to literally take a shit on themselves

    Who gives a shit? It was a completely meaningless game (for UW) two years ago.

    Derek's art department doesn't allow for creative use of video or photos. Plus they use the same photos for both of our articles.

    point taken. i will start adding some variety.

    Browning could leak all over the offensive players and 1 defensive scrub whose job it is to wipe him up.
    You still will win but I don't personally see the shit being all that far fetched.
