Thanks for filling in the blanks, BC. Right, my sense was that Williamson took the Fiesta Bowl loss on himself, but after he made that not-a-chip-shot OT field goal versus Oregon, the burden was lifted from his shoulders. I think he even got the game ball from David Shaw, but maybe that was for a different game.

But maybe there were other pressure situations, outside of the Fiesta Bowl, where Williamson didn't come through. But I really don't feel like looking them up.

Williamson tore his groin muscle practicing onside kicks during pre-game vs. USC in 2011 and missed several games. I don't think he will ever use the injury as an excuse for his Fiesta Bowl performance. But I have to think that either the injury or the practice time that he missed was a factor.
