I was listening to post-game interviews on Utah Radio (I watched the game in person), the #2 running back said their offensive game plan was simple: have a guy run in motion on nearly every play, forcing a defender to a certain side of the formation thus opening up the middle. The player said the coaches saw this vulnerability on tape and built it into the game plan. And, sure enough, we got torched. I think the D played well the entire 2d half but by then it was too late.
On the last drive, 3rd and 2 from the 6, defense is on its heels, the pile moves forward on every run play, run the EFFING BALL!! Or, Run read option? or run a play where the QB can run or pass? Stupid Shaw. Stupid. If he really said he had no timeouts (as another poster said), then that is just shameful. Moreover, there was nearly a minute on the clocks, enough time to run two plays without a timeout.
Hogan sucked all game. Pre-game, Utah radio was dissing Hogan saying he was never going to play in the NFL and that he did a "decent" job running the team and that last week we won against UW in spite of him. They couldn't have said it better.
The two catches on the last drive were great plays by the receivers bailing Hogan out. He has no idea how to read a defense. But why go to him in the clutch? Gaffney was killing them! No one second guesses a running play on 3rd and 2 in that situation...get the first down, run more plays...
I have no access to post-game interviews now, I wonder if Shaw is showing any humility.
Utah had a great game plan and executed well. I don't know if I buy this "we didn't deserve to win", we were in position to win the game at end, we would have deserved it!
