The interception after the bad punt in the 4th qtr was the worst designed play I have ever seen. You are near the red zone and you run a designed roll out to the short side of the field after you send your best weapon in motion to the left where he is all alone? Let's see what is wrong with that. First, if you are using him as a decoy, you need him somewhere you can actually throw him the ball so he is a threat. That play, he is about as much of a decoy as he would have been sitting on the bench. Second, even if there is a thought of a throwback across the field, the throw is so long and you are so close to the end zone, it only takes one guy to stay home to deal with him, it won't hold the safety on that side like you are expecting if there is more room to cover. Third, it is always tough to do a design roll out the closer you are to the end zone because there is less room and you have essentially taken away half the field. Fourth, when you do a design roll, the QB reads are short to long(the opposite of a play fake where the read is long to short). To have proper spacing, since you are bringing the D with you, you need more field. With only 23 yds to the end zone, it makes it tough to get spacing and you almost always have to take the short pass and you have to throw it quick. If you don't, you need to tuck it and run. The deep guy is a mirage and shouldnt even be considered so you are now stuck with no deep guy, and no Cooper. It is a suicide play call for a shaky QB who is going to try to force it. That spot on the field, that play should never enter the mind of a competent OC.
wish that MoRon had fumbled and had it returned for a TD.
LOL, I saw him run out of the end zone after the pick, and I'm screaming "GO DOWN, GO DOWN", I honestly have no idea what he was thinking. Ducks v Bucks, should be a classic

poor coaching/ idk how can a 12 year old girl know he should go down but he doesn't ? is he that fucking dumb or sooo selfish he really wanted to score?
I think your right on but -7 would be the number to make you think. Just thinking out loud the fast pace Oregon Offense Ohio st shooting there load against the big bad Bama team I think if it open -6 it doesn't stay long. -7 you start to think. Oregon starts to steam roll it's sick. I'll bet Oregon -6 now any takers. JK Goats

Other than this stuff, I thought the play was pretty solid

I think he was running toward the bench like " We win!" then realized he was holding a live ball.
now lets not give the kid that much credit... . he was on the move for a potential score. was idiotic.
I don't know what he was thinking, but he was running toward the Bama bench anyway. I think he probably got caught up in the moment, and instinctually ran the ball out. I can guarantee he and Urban had a little chat about it after the game
