If you wanted an exciting ending to the Seahawks’ mock game Saturday at Bothell you got one, even if it took a little bit of finagling by coach Pete Carroll.
In front of a full house at Pop Kenney Stadium in what was their first off-site practice of the Carroll era, the Green team (consisting of the backups) beat the Blue (the starters) 23-20, overcoming a late 20-3 deficit.
But they got some help from Carroll’s decision to award the Green an onside kick following a late touchdown (there actually was no kick) and the Green converted on the final play to get the win on an 11-yard pass from Geno Smith to Jazz Ferguson, an undrafted free agent who began his college career at LSU.
