No, that would be this one.......The Seattle pass call on 2nd and goal from the 1 yard line with one of the best running backs in the world in the backfield is.........
THE ABSOLUTE DUMBEST CALL IN FOOTBALL HISTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Because he threw a punch that connected with a guy's head right in front of an official. Doesn't really matter how much time is on the clock.what is the point of ejecting a player for 18 seconds and a kneel down?
I disagree. It was at least 3rd and "8." A passing down.
I remember that, to Byrd in the corner of the endzone.Les Miles is your OC?
Yep!Still???
A certain legendary coach calling a fake punt on 4th and 13 in his own end of the field in a national title game wasn't exactly a stroke of genius. Well, actually it was - it set up the injury to Colt McCoy down there that Saban knew all along was the chief game plan.I disagree. It was at least 3rd and "8." A passing down.
It's necessary to remember that Seattle also had their RZ interception and a TD courtesy of the slow back judge not being able to get out of the way and blocking the Pat's #24 to enable the Seahawk's last TD. Poetic justice that the Hawks threw a goal line INT...A certain legendary coach calling a fake punt on 4th and 13 in his own end of the field in a national title game wasn't exactly a stroke of genius.

But at least that dumb call was early enough in the game to have no material affect on the outcome. Carroll blew a shot at legendary status. What if Seattle wins it all NEXT year? That will make what happened even worse historically speaking. This jack weed is going to get up nights losing sleep over this one just like Belichick has to wake up now thinking, "I'd have won five and been the greatest of all-time if Tyree hadn't made that grab in 2008!"
Hate to say it but I could see Kiffin making that call!Les Miles is your OC?
Pretty much what I said to my wife 5 seconds after the play ended. Mind boggling!The Seattle pass call on 2nd and goal from the 1 yard line with one of the best running backs in the world in the backfield is.........

This. Seattle got some breaks along the way, especially the play with the ref. I hate that it was Wilson who cost the Seahawks the game.It's necessary to remember that Seattle also had their RZ interception and a TD courtesy of the slow back judge not being able to get out of the way and blocking the Pat's #24 to enable the Seahawk's last TD.

I hate myself for laughing.
"But I died" kid is now a meme.
Commercials were bad this year.
"Passing down" doesn't matter in that situation. Up 2 with 50 seconds left, on your own 35. Run the ball, milk the clock as much as possible and punt it away.I disagree. It was at least 3rd and "8." A passing down.

But it's a useless stat.I also saw a stat that said in the same situation the Seahawks were in last night (1st & goal from the 1), Lynch scored a TD 1 in 6 tries.
I think Auburn had one timeout left, which they would have used. Run it, we punt with about 45 seconds left and they have to drive about 60 yards or so. I'd still take my chances with that as opposed to what did happen."Passing down" doesn't matter in that situation. Up 2 with 50 seconds left, on your own 35.

Both teams got away with a lot of picks. One of the Pats TD passes looked like the play ND ran against FSU.It's necessary to remember that Seattle also had their RZ interception and a TD courtesy of the slow back judge not being able to get out of the way and blocking the Pat's #24 to enable the Seahawk's last TD.
