      Wanna talk strategy for a second? I honestly think Whitt sent out the field goal unit before centering the ball for the winning kick, just to make sure USC burned their last timeout. He knew they’d use it to try and ice the kicker. Thoughts?

        Why was Whitt losing his s**t with the side ref? I think he was trying to argue substitutions again. He sent the offense out saw USC kicking personnel and wanted their last timeout. Then lined up on the hash everyone knew a usc timeout would be called.

          IDK but I loved it – Just hit a GW kick and the first thing Kyle does is yell at the refs

            No before that. He was arguing prior to the centering of the ball.

          Whitt explained it in the post-game presser. They changed the rule so that you can’t ice the kicker by calling multiple timeouts. Since Utah had called timeout before sending the kick team on, SC calling another timeout with out a play running was this issue.

          The reason was a miscommunication with the officials. Whitt was told he couldn’t call another timeout after centering the ball. This of course was false. The ref thought he was asking about calling 2 timeouts in a row, but Whitt wanted to run the centering play and then call timeout.

          I’m just glad this scenario didn’t result in Utah rushing for a FG because that was going to be a mess. The holder got hit in the head with the ball as the timeout was called.

          “ And what we were doing there at the end is we were going to center it up and I let the ref know we were going to center it up and call timeout. They say you can’t call timeout, but you just can’t call consecutive timeouts. So I sent the field goal unit back out there, knowing that it was incorrect, but they were going to wind the clock and then they (USC) called timeout. And so, I came back over and got the other ref and said, ‘hey, what’s the deal?’ There was a little bit of lack of communication, but the bottom line is we got it settled where yes, you can use your final timeout if you use that last play to center it up. So that’s why it looked a little bit wishy-washy at the end.” Whitt

        You want to talk some more strategy? How about the possibility that Utah allowed Williams to score on the QB keeper so that they would have plenty of time to go down the field and kick the game winning FG?

          The time management on Utahs ensuing possession didn’t really make me confident. Two busted plays and #90 with 3 seconds to go. It worked.

      Overcame uncalled block in the back of Damuni on the punt return. Overcame a drop, 2 false starts and a bad mark on the game winning drive to win. Oh yeah and Brick (Barnes) killed a man!

      All by himself, there is only one moment when someone is sitting next to him talking to him. (12:30)
      No pat on the shoulder. No good game. No it’s O.K. we’ll get em next time.
      I don’t mind that he doesn’t shake hands with the Utes but nothing with his team.
      I might be reading into things that are not there and he is an amazing quarterback but I wonder what kind of teammate he is. Does he even like his team? Do they like him?

        Caleb Williams is all about Caleb Williams. He certainly is an amazing athletic talent. If I were an NFL GM – I would think twice before I picked him #1. However, GMs think they can fix this kind of thing. He has the talent to become a great NFL QB. But, IMO he won’t become great because he is NOT a team-first guy. He is not a team leader.

          If CW tries the kind of s**t he does in the NFL he will be recovering from injury. Look at the Colts. NFL qb’s are on a different level of good. Maybe CW can go to that level but I just don’t see it.

        Not to defend him because I certainly despise his antics, but Caleb Williams is a millionaire many times over at the ripe old age of 21. And, he hasn’t even begun to start earning “real money.” You have to ask yourself, how many 21 year olds are in that position? Not many. Plus, there’s the fact that he is a Scorpio (I’m a Scorpio as well). The inability to achieve their goals, can make Scorpios burn with jealousy. Competitive and ambitious, they hate to lose or be left behind in the success race. Either they will beat you at your game or else the lack of success can start messing up their head. They wouldn’t share their worries, being secretive by temperament and in due course, their failures will become their biggest foes. They are sore losers and for years to come, they will continue to hold that resentment towards the world in their heart (I got this description from The Times of India but it rings true).

          Yes they are. They are biased for USC, which is perfectly fine since it is their radio, but they do so in a professional way that doesn’t make you irritated.

      One thing I just noticed on our last drive – Vaki didn’t play one snap. We obviously still won so it didn’t matter but find it odd that they didn’t use their most explosive player during such a critical drive. I would bet that if we had lost, that would have been a big question. Just opinion.

        #90 and two busted plays. That was that drive. I actually agree with the color guy. Although he was wrong on the target. That was quite obviously a target and if Utah did it I would expect it to be flagged.

        The time management looks awful as it unfolds but ended up working.

      First, #1 (Branch) should not have been allowed a return. In this situation the chance of a fair catch is near zero, the chance of a long return is quite likely even though it has been defended prior, kick out of bounds is the correct strategy.

      Given the ball on the 11, Utah either let CW score or the defense was given a sleeping pill collectively.

      The last drive did not start out well and the USC penalty was an assist, but the critical play was all on USC when they let Barnes run around thru half a dozen for a mind numbing 26 yards to be everything in the last drive. A busted pass play that CW usually owns. No idea what Whitt was excited about. It appears LR was surprised by the center the ball plan.

      CW has had lots of wins to celebrate, he could have been classy and shook Barnes hand for his only big win. Instead he let Barnes wander the crowd in an unfamiliar attempt to locate CW for the customary QB greet. Given the way he handles a loss, maybe Utah owes ND a ‘thank you for your assist’ card.
