Talk me down: Did we quit?

frankeefrank · 10-10-2010, 08:16 PM

5:19 to go
1 timeout left
Down 10

4th and 2
We punt.

We stopped Arizona, but had no time left to do anything.

2 yards.
Did we just give up?

poor clock management...

See I thought it was more about philosophy.
You play to win the game.
No. 1 offense last two seasons.

I think we made more than that mistake today as far as coaching is concerned.

Can't talk you down, you're right. Poor clock management. It's called getting outcoached.

There's a fine line between arrogance and confidence. We exhibited the former in this game with 5 min to go.

HALO has made the best statement....

They got out-coached(Period).
