Apologize if this was already raised on this thread, but this isn't the first time Cristobal has done this.
In 2018, Oregon (coached by Cristobal) held a 3 point lead on Stanford with 51 seconds left, Stanford had one TO left and it was 2nd down and three; so, Oregon could simply take a knee and run out the clock to seal the win. Oregon refused to take the win, Oregon fumbled, and of course, Stanford kicked the tying FG, and then won in OT.
Also, note that future ACC member Stanford was #7 in the nation, and they beat Oregon and Justin Herbert at Autzen.
