Great call. Rex had the easy first down, YAC, and who knows what else. Too bad!

4th down trick play - GREAT call

The problem wasn't the call; it was the execution

It was the actually catching part. Everything else was just fine.

I'd say the #1 problem with that play was Zach's decision to throw it to Romney
Beggar

Missing Rex there is a tragedy
Mrs Featerbottom

Romney probably still has a mark on his chest. Zach made the throw. gotta catch
fulano
1/4/21 1:45pm
Yeah but in that situation you take the easiest route to a first down.
Mrs Featerbottom
1/4/21 3:22pm
That's the type of catch Romney has made all year too.

Wow. Didn't notice Rex during the game. He would have gone for another 10-15

Probably would have been close to the same yardage as Romney
Charles Darwin

Yep. That was aggressive call and read by OC and QB.

Shows Wilsons confidence in Gunner... too bad

I was laughing at the DB celebrating so much because it looked like Romney just

does look like he punched out a sure catch
Cougarclaw
1/4/21 1:38pm
Nah, the ball bounced out of Romney's hands before he got there.
Benfica1
1/4/21 6:50pm
Yeah, the DB thought he broke it up. Romney just dropped it.
Benfica1
1/4/21 6:49pm
Yeah... but Romney really should've caught that
Rat

if he comes back to the ball, it's a catch

The difference between a brilliant and boneheaded call is whether it works.
All-American

It was a decent play call - but unnecessarily risky.

It's an easier call after you've seen how the defense reacts to the play. You

he could have ran it just as easily as well and made it no problem.

Rex was not happy he didn't get the ball there

Man, hadn’t noticed how wide freaking open Rex was. Not only would that have

It wasn't a risk. This play had a much, much higher chance of success than

Twice the ball is tossed backwards on that play. That’s two risks right there.

A wise coach once said three things can happen on a pass play and two of them

We have not been successful picking up short yardage on the ground.

That's a dumb saying.
JuicyJam

Seriously
chazen
1/4/21 2:01pm
Didn't we do that later in the game and not get it?
SUAVO
1/4/21 1:55pm
No wise coach says that in 2020. That is an outdated mindset.

Never before heard Darrell Royal called wise

Seriously. I'm convinced some fans don't actually watch the games.

Funny to hear the announcer praise a DB after a straight drop.

Ya this play was one I thought about a lot after the game
BradioHead
1/4/21 1:58pm
It was better than a 54% chance of success to Romney. Romney caught 65% of his targets.
SpiffCoug

Have to disagree. So many things have to go right for that play to work
BamaCoug

We were at midfield?

When was the last time against a good defense that BYU was able to simply line
Ash

Gotta love seeing DBs celebrate when receivers just miss the catch
Hill4Heisman
1/4/21 2:57pm
Nah - he actually made a great play punching it out.

this is hilarious. watch it again.

Yeah, I can see it now when I watch it again.

I think you were closer to the truth the 1st time.
Eddie
1/4/21 3:34pm
Wow. I never noticed how WIDE FREAKING OPEN Rex was. Poor decision by ZW.
Ham
1/4/21 3:25pm
The ball was perfectly placed in the chest of one of our best receivers.
All-American
1/4/21 3:37pm
Sure I can. It was a much tougher and riskier throw. Bad decision.
Ham
1/4/21 3:46pm
Let me rephrase. You can't blame ZW and be right.
All-American
1/4/21 4:42pm
Let's be clear here:
Ham
1/4/21 4:49pm
Zach can make those throws. In fact, he did. Decision was fine; ball was dropped
All-American
1/4/21 5:00pm
Clearly Ham's point is that Zach chose the lower % option. Romney had to go to
chazen

Imagine ZW being in a draft interview at the combine

That sounds like a fantastic "defense." Not that any defense is needed.

Charles Darwin

He did make a great throw. Just a bad decision.
Ham
1/4/21 9:01pm
I don't put it on Wilson at all. That was on Romney for dropping the ball.

As soon as you see a good opportunity, you throw - you don't keep looking for

On thing to look at is why rin plays fail and when they work...
