Berkelium97: I've been going back and forth on this one. The strategy worked, but that doesn't mean it was the right decision. If you had asked me a week ago if not using our timeouts on the goal line with under two minutes was the right decision, I would have vehemently disagreed. During the game, however, we had surprising success with the run defense. Looney was consistently getting a push up the middle against Utah's backup center and we had held them to about 3.25 yards per carry. Run defense gets a little easier on the goal line because there's very little vertical space on the field, so the safeties can get to the point of attack faster.
You be the coach: Should Cal have used their timeouts against Utah?
