How'd that FG work out for ya coach.

4th and 3 from the 20 you gotta go for that, you get it ans you got a great chance to tie. FG took away a possession from at least getting to OT. Indefensible.

losergohome · 01-01-14, 08:38 PM

i just can't understand the value of fg with 4 min left down by 7 and u have 2 time outs, did coach get a call and remind him over is 41.5 ? had a good year and lose the rose bowl? i don't think so

Indy5 · 01-01-14, 08:50 PM

Loser I loved the continual well thought out full back dive.......

Catchn_Picks · 01-01-14, 08:53 PM

idiotic FG call and zero creativity for the whole game…several times 3 straight times running off tackle and 3 and out

TiredPro · 01-01-14, 08:55 PM

Two dropped interceptions were the difference..........and incredibly poor play calling from Shaw. Another Rooney rule casualty waiting in the wings.

all year you plan for every situation and this moment with game on line u call fullback dive, sounds good to me indy

thetrinity · 01-01-14, 08:57 PM

i had the under so the fg really pissed me off, but i mean come on, had to be one of the dumbest decisions ever.

like he was goin up and down the field all game on the defense and theyd get so many more chances with 5 minutes left

Indy5 · 01-01-14, 09:14 PM

Right on T

aman86 · 01-01-14, 09:36 PM

guy deserves to get lynched in his sleep tonight...fg helped solidify my over, but I was shocked they would kick a fg in those circumstances...fu.cking niga ass dumbas.s

d2bets · 01-01-14, 09:43 PM

FG would have made sense if they were down 6. But down 7 it was idiotic. Playing for a win in regulation? Like you wouldn't be happy with OT at that point? Just crazy.

fecgp40 · 01-01-14, 10:04 PM

Hands down some of the worst play calling I've ever seen. From the FG with 5 minutes left down 7 to the FB dive on 4th and 1. Wow. Just Wow.

Eddy Munny · 01-01-14, 10:34 PM

Are you guys forgetting the fact that Stanford DID go for it? They initially faked the fg, then got flagged for ineligible receiver downfield. At that point it became 4th and 8 so they took a sure 3 points rather than risk an empty drive. With 5 minutes left and a good defense, it seemed rational. If it was 4th and 8 at midfield, you would still punt at that point......so why wouldn't you take points in the same situation?

CallMeGENO · 01-01-14, 10:36 PM

did u watch the game? it was a botched hold.

whats more pathetic, stanford coach or the defense in the fiesta bowl?

Slimpickens · 01-01-14, 11:06 PM

When did Stanford turn into a high school team? That really was pathetic could tell who the better coached team was for sure.

Eddy Munny · 01-01-14, 11:10 PM

I do agree Shaw's a bum. I had Stanford a couple years ago when they lost to Oklahoma St. in whatever bowl game that was. I don't remember the exact details, but Stanford had every opportunity to put the game away but Shaw was too much of a pussy to go in for the kill and let the game slip away with putrid playcalling.

Renegades · 01-01-14, 11:35 PM

I remember that game Eddy. They ran 3 times and settled for a fg to force OT and then they missed the fg in ot. Luck was pleading to take a shot but they just ran the ball at the end of regulation.

Yeah that sounds right. I remember thinking it was a damn shame that Luck had to end his collegiate career with a shot to win the game, but saddled with a coach who would rather crawl into a shell. It's like if you're too scared to go out and seize victory when Andrew freakin Luck is your quarterback, then you just need to find another profession......one where risk-taking isn't requisite.

I've always had that game in the back of my mind when it comes to Shaw and it influenced my decision to bet on Michigan St. today. I figured Dantonio would coach with nothing to lose, and Shaw would employ his usual gutless, conservative approach.

Retrospect · 01-02-14, 04:04 AM

I almost got in at -3 opening line which would a still lost. I agreed they should be throwing more coz they can't run against mist defense.

Retrospect · 01-02-14, 04:05 AM

Line went from 3 to 7 lol vegas is rich

Easy to say when youre not on the field coaching.

Did you watch the game Einstein ? Shaw ran the same plays over and over with no success. He calls all the plays for Stanford. He called a horrible game. The decision to kick the field goal in the 4th quarter was painfully dumb. Every one of his players would have rather gone for it on 4th down and tried to tie the score than walk away with 3 meaningless points. Mark it down, he's no big game coach.

11-2, 12,-2, 11-3 is all you need to know.

Capper1124 · 01-03-14, 12:49 AM

Bad playcalling for sure

Da Manster! · 01-03-14, 01:15 AM

My sources tell me that the reason Shaw decided to kick that "meaningless" FG was because he had Stanford teased to (+4.5) on his parlay card!...

They didn't fake the FG. The only reason it wasn't attempted initially is because the snap was fumbled so he improvised. It wasn't called for a fake. And if it was, that woulda been stupid in the first place. On 4th and 3 just go for it, don't screw around.
