As I woke up Saturday morning, resolving to enjoy my day, I found that I was having a really difficult time moving past my frustration and annoyance.
I was frustrated that the Washington State Cougars didn’t bring a win back from Los Angeles. I was annoyed that poor officiating played such a role in the outcome.* I was annoyed that Mike Leach predictably burned his timeouts in unnecessary situations, preventing any safety net after the final drive. I was super annoyed that Blake Mazza’s final kick never got a chance because of a blown blocking assignment that USC had scouted.
