You folks would do well to show more respect to ER. The guy's a genius and could probably kick your ass in any topic.

C'mon Lebowski, can't you sense my sarcasm here? I bow to your physics prowess. I just own you when it comes to trajectory of a football. No reason for bitterness...

This is the same reason we see a disproportionate number of blocked field goals at the end of games (UCLA last year, for example). Teams don't have to be concerned about a fake for a first down, so they send the house. I think this explanation makes much more sense than the trajectory argument, which is, as you say, BS. By the way, this doesn't excuse the UW failure to block. It's just a contributing factor. |

Are you really taking the position that BYU would have defended a 20 yard kick the same as a 35 yard kick? The point is Washington had 11 not 7 guys to block.
