I thought running out the clock was the right move after the facemask penalty. At that point it is unlikely to get the first down, and you don't want to give UW the ball back around midfield with time on the clock.

They weren't hurrying up before the penalty though. It was a run play down the middle that the penalty happened.

Yeah, I would have liked to have seen a pass play on first down. Our FG unit isnтАЩt a strength both in terms of our ability to execute a kick and our FG kickers range and accuracy. Therefore we really need to get as short a FG as possible.

Hm... I didn't have a problem with the play calling on that drive.

Garbers threw an 8 yard pass to Hunter on 1st down - they then wasted nearly 20 seconds on 2nd & 2 from the 28 WITH 3 timeouts left!! And then came the brutal face maskтАжUNACCEPTABLE.

Garbers needs to call a TO there.

If I remember correctly, wasn't the clock runoff due to the penalty? Idk

No, there was no runoff. There was also no urgencyтАжitтАЩs as if the 2 minute drill was foreign to them.
