fuk U Pittsburgh!
- Thread starter Mulligan
- Start date
yep two straight onside kicks, with Pittsburgh looking like walkers on the walking dead. Houston scored three touchdowns in the last 3 min.. It made Michigan State comeback look like an average game.
instead of kick PAT for the tied 34-34, they went for the win with a 2pt coversion and success.
Not usually one to bitch about games, that was incredible. And it's already compounded, because sitting there in amazement, didn't get my Tennessee play in. Had Pittsburgh -5 for 300, and 200 parlay Pittsburgh -5/Washington -6.
I'm going to go with the theory that Washington is a foregone conclusion winner, I'll be pounding the Huskies later getting some retribution. LOL.

We'll give you a Mulligan...:142smilie I think the same way...:0corn GL the rest of the way...
Unreal comeback by Houston. I was worried about just getting my already teased 7 points Over to hit at 48.
Just some thoughts as I didn't watch whole game (kept up with it) and did watch last 6 minutes.
Houston converted a lot of 3rd/4th and long to comeback. Not sure how Pitt plays D the entire game and then all of a sudden can't stop them. The 2 onside kicks....if you're Pitt, what can you say. Shit happens I guess.
For me, I would have kicked deep on the 2nd one....Houston had all 3 timeouts and over 2 mins to play. I guess they were worried they couldn't stop Pitt.
Same thing on the 2-pt conversion. I have no problem going for the win on a 2-pt conversion like that....but with 59 seconds left you can't go for the win. They went for the lead and got it which led to the win. Again, maybe they just wanted to avoid OT and I can understand that. I think before the last minute, Pitt scored on 5 possessions in a row. So I do get that, but if they miss 2-pt, game over (well, perhaps a 3rd onside kick)....if they make the 2-pt, Pitt can still try to get a FG.
And, for anyone who didn't see it....Pitt got a PI on 4th down to extend the game at midfield. Then had a pass hit a guy wide open in the hands and dropped, would have been inside the 20 I think and Pitt would have probably won.
Was hoping Houston would pull off the comeback but all Pitt needed, up 21, was just one play. That's it. Just one stop on a couple 4th downs. Just recover one onside kick. Just catch that one pass. Just a crazy ending and everything possible went right for Houston. Glad I watched.

Ended up losing a bit

I'm getting off of Washington because they are a "foregone conclusion winner" so will lose for sure now.
why not go for 2? an onside kick was a given. If you missed it , you still had 59 seconds left. :shrug:
