I think Justin Williams-Thomas deserves some love in the fUCLA win. I was not optimistic after losing Ifanse, but JWT put in some inspired short yardage gains. The guy always falls forward.

Also think we had more to play for (than UCLA) and that we finally fell on the good side of luck. Hoping they can harness that kind of energy (and good fortune) mid-season next year because that seems to be when the wheels usually fall off the bus.
I'm glad JWT stepped up after Ifanse's injury. What happened to Stredick? We stopped using him at all, which I don't mind, but Ott has been getting way more carries than he did earlier in the season. I'm also surprised Wilcox started using Ott on KO returns when the RB depth got thin. It paid off, but I am also scared of injuries.
Last game of the season with a bowl game on the line. You don't really need to worry about injuries. You have a few weeks to recover if you make a bowl, and if not, well you have all off-season to get healthy.

Yeah JWT is a good back. I love his forward lean and leg drive to go with his low pad level. Good speed, good size....Go Bears!
That scrum like run picked up almost 15 yards...
He was giving half the defense a piggyback ride lmao.

Stredick fumbled at a key time. Sometimes that means you get to ride the pine and are in the doghouse
Stredick fumbled more than once at key times this season.

He started returning KOs in Washington State game
But he fair caught all of them.
