BYU football: Celebration leads to UW misery Washington Huskies vs BYU Cougars tickets, Phew! A non-conference road win? It's about time. BYU pulled out a win today over the Washington Huskies by blocking an extra point attempt that would have tied the game as time wound down. Good times, good times? Just as I was about to kick a hole in my TV for in frustration over the atrociously biased Pac 10 refs (who had just swallowed their whistles on a blatant hold ? a hold that likely prevented a drive-ending sack no less), just at that moment the refs blew the whistle on UW quarterbac. Hideous ref call screws Washington tickets, In watching the end of BYU's 28-27 college football.win over Washington, I saw the worst officating call in memory (and that's saying a lot).

Locker got up in the end zone, flipped the ball up the air in celebration and chest bumped a teammate (see beginning of the celebration here). The rest of the offense piled on in jubilation. It's the kind of celebrat. Payback on the Huskies Now Washington football fans know exactly how Oregon State fans felt after the Larry Farina-led Pac-10 officiating crew completely screwed up the end of the 2007 Husky-Beaver game at Reser Stadium by not ruling that Yvenson Bernard was down.en not blowing the play dead and thus negating his purported fumble at the 1/2-yard line, and then again by not requesting a review of the play that nearly cost the Beavers a 29-23 victory.

First Celebration Rule Victim: Washington tickets, Filed under: Brigham Young, Washington, Mountain West, General CFB InsanityIn case you missed it, there was a tremendous football game played this afternoon between Washington and BYU.

The truth is, we had no idea.tickets. |
