Wahoo! We're going to the ROSE BOWL!
A cool quote in the post-game writeups: Kevin Hogan took Stanford where Andrew Luck never could.
This one was much closer than last week when we handled the Bruins easily. UCLA played so much better, stopped our offense, and generally caused a bunch of trouble. Makes you wonder if they sort of laid down last weekend to get to play us this weekend instead of Oregon?
Jordan Williamson kicked a 36 yard FG to break the tie in the 4th quarter with 6 minutes left. UCLA had a chance to tie with a 51 yard FG with a few seconds left, but failed.
Funny - Cheri was texting me earlier in the game when they were ahead, saying "I hear San Antonio is nice this time of year". They had a bunch of people at their place watching the game now that they're all huge Bruin fans (Zack is a freshman in the band this year). The general consensus was that whoever lost this game will go to the Alamo Bowl. Turns out maybe THEY'RE going to Texas, not me! :)
Crappy crowd - embarrassing that we can't sell out for the PAC 12 championship game. It was raining, so that kept some away, but come on! Official attendance said 31,622 but it looked to be far less than that.
