In case you missed it, there was a tremendous football game played this afternoon between Washington and BYU. Washington started the final drive down a touchdown (28-21) and pulled off several impressive third and fourth down conversions to keep their hopes alive.Facing third and goal from their own two with under 10 seconds left, Washington made a gutsy move and called a quarterback run for Jake Locker who stumbled but kept his balance just long enough to sneak into the end zone to bring the Huskies within an extra point of overtime with two seconds left. In his elation, Locker threw the ball over his head and jumped into the body of a teammate.
A nearby official then threw a flag for unsportsmanlike conduct, part of the new celebration rule. Count on that rule requiring some kind of amendment during the offseason because Locker's celebration was mild, to put it mildly.
Washington then faced a long extra point, which was blocked, ending the game with defeat instead of what should have been a gimme extra point and overtime.




The Georgia Bulldogs opened the college football season as number one overall for the first time in the history of their school. It didn't last very long.
With about 10 seconds remaining in the third quarter of the Alabama - Clemson "game" (if you can call it that)
