I watched this game on Fox Sports Net West Coast. I absolutely love satellite dish extended coverage!
Neither team deserved to win this game. I think there were about two dozen turnovers total, mistackles were the norm, and receivers may have dropped more passes than they caught.
That said, I was pulling for Washington. Washington State did not belong in the BCS - the Pac-10 is having a WAY down year, and with USC likely for the Sugar, this will force the Rose Bowl to look elsewhere.
Simply put, the second-best team in the Pac-10 this year is not as good as the fourth best team from the Big-10, SEC, or even Big-12.
Congrats to Washington. After toileting a season full of expectations, this has to be sweet for the seniors. Now Washington needs to win and get some help from Cal for an outside bowl shot.
