On that final play against SDSU it seemed to me that JJ was well covered and Chryst just put the ball up there, hoping something good would happen. Obviously, it didn't.
He was pretty well covered, but it was single coverage by a defender who gave up 4-6 inches to him. It should have been a completed pass, or at the worst an incomplete pass where the DB makes a nice play to pry it loose from Arcega-Whiteside's grip. But it was badly underthrown (or the route was run incorrectly, which I guess is also a possibility) and only the DB could make a play on it.

Chryst threw that ball off his back foot, and he didn't have to as there was not tremendous pressure.
The pass was underthrown and thrown towards the middle of the field. That pass has to be to the sideline.
It was a similar error to the one Rosen made against us when Holder(?) picked it off and went for six in the play that got us going in 2015.
