The two plays that help define the season:
2nd and 4, with 3 minutes left, tie game, in field goal range. You've just run for 6 yards on first down. Let's heave the ball downfield into a jumpball, incomplete pass, little gain on 3rd down, and scoring with 2:20 left and Cal still having all their timeouts to go up 3. You run that ball twice, maybe get a first down, and at least run another 40 seconds off the clock or force a timeout.
And on second down and 4, your receiver runs a route that puts him at the sticks when he receives the ball - and runs backwards two yards to try to turn it upfield. Followed by an incomplete pass on third and two.
No identity for this team at all.
