A long Pac-10 season with the zebras


Of course as a fellow U of Washington alumni I am pissed at how yesterday's game against BYU played out. After making it all the way to the 3-yard line in about three and a half minutes, the Huskies had a chance, a glimmer of hope against a team who held the longest winning streak in the nation, with 11 wins.

QB Jake Locker, one of the best running quarterbacks in college football, scored a touchdown with 0:02 seconds on the clock. He threw the ball behind him, nonchalantly, and celebrated with his teammates. I mean COME ON! Who wouldn't celebrate that touchdown? And it was classy celebration, nothing worth calling a penalty on, which the refs did!!! They called a 15-yard penalty for excessive celebration. Totall bullshit(excuse my language) if you ask me, or ask anyone else!!!!


Anyways on the PAT the Huskies had to kick from 15-yards further. No big deal, not until the kicker got blocked and we lost the game by one damn point on a horrible call made by the zebras!

Anyone who's anyone knew that BYU got lucky. UW had a legitimate chance to win it. The excessive celebration penalty was uncalled for. And the zebras cost UW the game. I just hope they know that they messed up and I hope they wear that call for the rest of their lives!
