Was it really one play? Was it the Stanford kicker nailing a 45 yard straight shot? Was it the long pass to Cajuste? Was it the 15 yard facemask penalty? Was it a Kizer touchdown run that looked no good only to be reviewed and accepted?
Was it one of those plays, or was it all of them in the last 35 seconds? The best bet would be to include all of them, for post hoc ergo propter hoc can’t really be used for the linear motion of a football game.
In fact, why don’t we give this game the justice it deserves (and most of us will fail to grasp this decade) and say that it was a great game.
