This is hardly any comparison to Harbaugh's $C antics.
I meant the "what's your deal?" moment, I recall Mora being pissed. Because while UCLA did take their TOs, we got a first down after they were out. There was <2 minutes left. We could have taken 3 knees and walked into the locker room with the win. Going for the TD right then was pointless other than sheer ruthlessness.
It's not the same as going for 2 when you're up by 3 scores, but it's really not that far off either.
