A few notes:
– Finally, an incomplete pass to Chris Polk. Polk dropped a ball at the line of scrimmage to end his perfect receiving season.
– A 53-yard touchdown did wonders for Kevin Smith‘s yards per target, now good for second on the team.
– After taking over for the banged-up Keith Price, Nick Montana preferred to check down against the fearsome Trojans blitz. Just five of his 15 passes were thrown to wide receivers. According to the official play-by-play, four had no target at all, two went to Bishop Sankey and a full four were thrown to the busy Michael Hartvigson, accounting for nearly a third of his targets all season.
