When A and M was up 34/27/20/13 they were still in hurry up. I get that this is your offence but simple math would have dictated running the rock and milking the clock. If they lose this it is the choke job of the century.
I only saw bits & pieces of this game but Sumlin always does dumb shit in games.
How about leaving the field with 4th down at the Ucla 42 and the clock running at the end of the 1H. With a timeout in his pocket!!!
You call the TO with 2-3 seconds left and throw into the EZ -- it's no risk and only potential reward! And instead he just walks off the field.
I'm pissed I wasn't around to live bet this. Saw the replay and at 44-24 you could tell Ucla was going to at least get this into single digits by game's end.
