THE TEN MOMENTS OF PURE MALICIOUS FATE, 2007: TICK TICK BOOM
The real pain begins. The good news is you only have to remember it for the rest of your life, which probably isn’t as long as you think it will be..
Number three: No no no no no no no. The kid’ll just throw the ball through the back of the endzone, right? Or get out of bounds in time? I mean, he’ll have to, right? There’s no way he’ll kill this comeback by just putting us out there on the grill sizzling in the clock? Not when we’ve been number one for an hour and a half? Nah, he’ll….
Time is the fire in which we all burn, Jeff Tedford. Of all of these, this is the one that would make us wake up screaming at night as a coach. You’ll see why when you see numbers two and one, but when the disaster is entirely manmade, you can’t even plea to the gods to intervene.
Numbers two and one to come. They’ll hurt.

Kevin Riley, the freshman QB is from Beaverton, Oregon.
So he must’ve been confused by the Oregon State Beavers, whose coach shares his last name.

Beavers fulfilled by a shocker.

I couldn’t even get through all of this one and I dislike Cal, that game was theirs and Tedford blew it completely. He does that at least once a year, but this was above and beyond the usual Tedford giveaway.
#7 - Western Ferentz. That’s a perfect name for him.

I also noticed that when the QB gets up the ref is standing there with his hands out to get the ball and he runs off the field with it. Talk about completely losing your head.

That, without a doubt, was the biggest brain cramp of the 2007 season.
I remember watching that game live, with a roomful of dudes with absolutely no rooting interest one way or the other in the game.
The fact that all six of us were roused from our post-game beers and snack food coma — to scream in unison some variation of “what the f*ck is he doing??!!” at the TV during a game we were only mildly paying attention to — speaks volumes of the level of stupidity involved.
