It's so maddening that Cal games often turn on tiny margins like this, since I'd prefer the team simply play better so that the team wouldn't need a lucky bounce to change momentum. But I suppose it evens out the events of the Notre Dame loss, if we're into that sort of sicko scorekeeping.
That said, it was only fitting that both Earby and Scott engineered the initial sequence of that play, since our defensive backs have been the one positive constant of the Wilcox years. (In fact, Scott's overall hero ball efforts in the final quarter in single-handedly trying to stem the tide, was reminiscent of DB Artis Houston's desperate struggles to try to hold back UW by himself in what ultimately turned out to be a loss in 1993...)
And for Sirmon, he's now etched his name into Cal lore into something far beyond being "the coach's kid".
