Looking at replay, Murphy was down before the ball came out. Should be overturned.

Correct call. Phew

 

[cbarry]

Terrible play call on 3rd and goal. Should have been thrown in the end zone.

Was Diaz employing the Roy Williams save-my-timeouts strategy there? That looked like a decent chance to score a TD. Perhaps I misunderstand the strategy there?

Wasn't a 3rd and goal, was a 3rd and 1.

 

[SavDukeGrad]

Such a nice pass and catch there for the score. Would have been better if we could have had it at the end of regulation, though.

 

[cbarry]

Wow. Survived

 

[crote]

Never in doubt.

 

[OZZIE4DUKE]

Wow! 26-20 in two overtimes and the defense came through on fourth down! LGD GTHcGTH! 9F!

 

[HPDevil]

It's amazing how the passing game suddenly clicked. I was calling for a QB change.

 

[djp10]

what the hell just happened lol

 

[6th Man]

Showed some grit to pull that game out.

 

[SkyBrickey]

In 4Q and OT we started passing on first down and it totally changed the game. I think this offense has potential. Open it up!

 

[roywhite]

What a struggle. The team hung in there and eventually overcame their many mistakes. Whew.

Murphy seemed to be getting in rhythm in the 4th and that carried into ot. Chandler Rivers made an absolute massive play on that 3rd &1

 

[SoCalDukeFan]

Loved the NW play call on 3rd diwn.

 

[OZZIE4DUKE]

2 and 0, baby! 2 and 0!

I don't think it was Murphy. I think it was out playcaller. Making completions on 1st and 10 much easier for Murphy than 2nd and 8.
