New Mexico Bowl: Washington State vs Colorado State

[TrueOrange]

Pretty good game so far.

45-43 with a 2 point conversion coming up.

CSU has scored 2 TDs in a 2-3 minute span. Helped in part by Washington State fumbling with 2 minutes left (a play after a fumble by the QB on a read option was overturned by replay, WSU proceeded to run another to the RB - without letting the clock run off any time - and the CSU defense was able to strip it away from WSU…again)

 

[TrueOrange]

Oh and CSU was just a yard short on the statue of liberty play for the 2 point conversion.


Or did they? This will be reviewed.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I think that's good.

Wow, this bowl is turning into a great bowl every year.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

We're tied 45-45.

 

[TrueOrange]

Conversion is good!


Second time in two years this bowl has come down to a last minute TD

 

[TrueOrange]

And WSU fumbles the kickoff return at their own 30!

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Holy Crap. Another fumble by WSU.

 

[TrueOrange]

Here it is. 41 yard FG for the win

 

[TrueOrange]

Good!

 

[UTCVol]

Wow! What a choke.

 

[TrueOrange]

CSU scores 17 points in less than 2:52 in the 4th to come back and win the New Mexico Bowl.


And the fans are rushing the field.

RB Kapri Bibbs is player of the game.

Moves the CSU Rams to an 8-6 record on the year.

WSU falls to 6-7.


This might end up being the best game of the day.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Wow. Second crazy finish in a row for the New Mexico Bowl.

 

[TrueOrange]

WSU's QB tied the record for most TD passes in a single bowl game today (6 TDs) in today's loss.

Such BS. My pick was wazzu, and I gotta say, it was the right pick. But, due to unholy circumstances, I'm opening up 0-2 on espn (picked fresno.)

 

[BigOrangeTruth]

Anyone notice the SEC ref who originally called the 2 pt conversion no good? He's looking right at it and the guy clearly hits the pylon...

 

[Rockytoptalker]

Dang it Wazzu.... Never again will I pick you guys for anything.

 

[UTwild82]

Yeah, I know. I would have been 3-0 in my bowl pick 'em if they could have just hung on to the freakin ball.

 

[Burhead]

CSU's defensive line coach will be unemployed soon.

18 fwiw.
WSU could have just taken knees and punted before the fumble, when they led 45-37. They would have run off nearly all of the time. I realize teams will never just take knees when they won't be able to run off every second, but dang, if there ever was a time to just secure the ball.

What truly made me confused was why WSU snapped the ball with like 15 seconds left on the play clock on the play they lost the second fumble.

I missed that.
I didn't see the conclusion live. I saw the final score and read the play-by-play. Then, I saw the highlights later on and didn't notice when they snapped it.
