PrintDietrich Riley set the tone for the defense with this combination de-cleater / helmet flying / bone-crushing hit on Jacquizz Rodgers who ended the day with a pedestrian 63 rushing yards.
On the first drive of the game Richard Brehaut dispelled any notion that he is unable to run the ball by rushing for 45 yards and a touchdown. Facing a 3rd and 3 situation, Brehaut improvises and scampers for 21 yards:
Brehaut fakes me out and keeps it for 11 yards:
The Beaver defense still couldn't believe Brehaut would keep running the ball as he scores on a 7-yard keeper. Nice to see the acknowledgement of the coaches as Brehaut returns to the sideline.
Unfortunately, the Bruins offense couldn't match that 1st drive until the 3rd quarter, down 14-7. Key for the drive was Brehaut's 3rd and 5 completion to Josh Smith:
It left the Bruins 1-yard short, but the decision was immediate to go for it on 4th down. Malcolm Jones blasted 3 yards for the 1st down at the 18:
Brehaut used his legs when nothing was available through the air, here gaining 9 yards:
Brehaut continued to show the ability to scramble and make plays when things broke down, like this 12-yard shovel pass to Cory Harkey for a key 12-yard gain on 3rd and 11:
Johnathan Franklin bounced back from his earlier fumble, scoring the tying touchdown on this one-yard run into the end zone:
Last, but not least, with one second left in the game, Kai Forbath showed why he's the best kicker in the country. Forbath shrugged off two earlier misses and drilled a game-winning 51-yard field goal that would have been good from 60 [Video clip from KABC Sports Zone]:
It seems forever since I felt so good leaving the Rose Bowl. Yeah, we had chances earlier in the game to avoid having the result come down to the last second play. But our team overcame itself (offense, defense, special teams, coaching staff) as well as our opponent and never quit. Hopefully, that will propel us through the next 3+ games.
Go Bruins!

I didn't get a chance to watch the game yesterday.
Thanks for the highlights!
good grom 60???
by that replay, we didnt even need to run that last 12 yard pass to carroll. great environment from the alumni section tonight!
A bruin is good forever, a Trojan is only good... ahh eff it, just use tin foil
Great environment in all sections
Even though the student section took the first quarter to fill out, the fans everywhere were great, compared to what I thought was an abysmal showing for Arizona. Might have been the difference between giving up 600 yards and 250 yards though.
We're havin' too much fun today. We ain't thinkin' 'bout tomorrow.
Thanks Tele
Looks like I was almost directly across the field from you. I had a terrible angle on the Riley hit, thanks for capturing it.
A few quick thoughts on the game, since I missed the other threads:
1. Props to the much-maligned receiver core for coming up with some big grabs.
2. While we’re talking receivers, would it kill CNC to let RC loose on a “go” route every now and again? Don’t know if you could see it at home but half the time he was out wide, his corner was playing bump and run with the safety 30 yards away.
3. Speaking of CNC. How can I say this, %*#(@&$^@*(*!!!!!! Yeah, that about sums it up.
4. More props, this time to the D. Just looked over the play-by-play, and OSU gained a total of 9 yards over the course of their last four drives. Dayum!!!
5. The above stat probably had something to do with the fact that our offense had the ball for over 20 minutes in the second half. No wonder our D looked fresh at the end.
6. Finally, I’ve come to the conclusion that sometime last year CNC caught Brehaut in bed with his wife. This is the only reasonable explanation.
Re: #6
I think CNC was going after a storyline with this one. After the douchey bomb the trogans threw last year after CRN dared to call a timeout, I think he saw it: A post-retirement memoir where he recounts the time he coached the scrappy kid who has to overcome adversity (like, a ton of it) to beat a contemptible rival. It was supposed to be just like the Karate Kid with Barkley as the douche from Cobra Kai, Prince as the Ralph Macchio character and none other than CNC himself as Mr. Miyagi.

Fox would approve
So-o-o nice to watch clips with nothing but crowd noise. Please, if it’s not asking too much, could you trade your camcorder for a TV cam and broadcast the remaining games live?
I watched on Versus, but your highlights capture the feeling of being there. Impressive stability on the zoom shots. Were these hand-held, with image stabilization? Nice, too, that you were able to get everybody in front of you to sit while you stood—no heads in the shots. Did you bring your own scaffolding?
Great stuff. Thanks, Tele. (Brilliant, LV. “Look…EYE!”)
LOL Bruinut - sure wish I could officially record and use a tripod!
Instead, as you guessed, these are hand-held with image stabilization. One of the by-products of seats at the top of the bowl is that I can stand all game and not bother anyone and am (usually) above the folks in front of me.
