January 1, 201511 yr Author Disappointed to see FSU not properly prepared to defend two point conversion. It's no secret Oregon often does that.
January 1, 201511 yr Oregon now into the red zone. Drive just around 2 minutes currently. Beautiful option pitch nearly scores it. Just a matter of seconds till Oregon goes up. Really moving faster than I can type. Ironically, they scored but the spot was challenged prior to the play. So the score comes off. No matter, they'll get it shortly. You're not stopping Oregon from there. If the ball was put into play with the whistle the play should count. I bet the rule does not read like that. But the ball had to be put into play for a legal snap.

January 1, 201511 yr Author That drive was doomed from the start. Kermit made a terrible decision to come out after bobbling the ball, and then nothing worked. Ermon Lane with the usual from FSU receivers this year. Through two drives, advantage Oregon. Two three and outs, but Oregon got a TD (plus two) on theirs compared to a field goal. On top of that, FSU just shanked their punt and Oregon has fantastic field position inside the FSU 40.

It's all about the buzzer. If the ref is buzzed before the snap, then it doesn't matter when the whistle comes or what happens, the play is invalid.
January 1, 201511 yr Author Oregon with the thousand cut approach so far. Take what the D gives you, small play, small plays, etc. They add up and soften the D for a shot.

January 1, 201511 yr Author Mariota misses a wide open man, and then they fail to capitalize on third down when FSU seemed out of position. And then the fourth down conversion fails. Oregon gets nothing from the great position. Fantastic play by Darby to blast the receiver.
January 1, 201511 yr Author Winston definitely not sharp early. High on that throw over the middle, which all too often has become an INT this year for him. Had that drop by Lane too. Cook with a strong run to get FSU close to the 40, and then another one to get to the 46. 3:30 1st, still 8-3 Oregon.
January 1, 201511 yr Author Oregon has been rushing 3-4 and dropping into coverage, which has been mostly effective so far. But the running and short game has moved FSU into the red zone for the second time today.
