Wow... Miami just went full-on Bob Toledo/Curtis Johnson. On the ensuing kickoff they put 10 guys up expecting onsides kick, and their lone back screwed up and downed the ball at their 1 yard line. On both first and second down, for some reason the refs stop the clock and put time back on, even though the clock should have been running because guys were tackled inbounds (once they put the time on, they then ran the clock....?) They get to 3rd and 2 with under a minute from like their own 9, and the clock is running. Miami's coach tells the side judge he wants a timeout with 1 second on the play clock, but doesn't actually call it at the time, just expects the guy to do it when the clock gets there. The guy doesn't, and they get a delay-of-game penalty. Then on 3rd and 7 from the 4, Miami's QB throws a pick-6.
Miami gets the ensuing kickoff with just over a minute and 2 timeouts left, marches down the field, throws to the end zone on 3rd down from around the 20 and gets a pass interference call, but after discussion the refs pick up the flag. Miami fails on 4th down, that's your ballgame, UC wins by 4.
I've seen a lot of crazy, crappy ways to lose games as a Wave fan, but that was painful. And I don't even care about Miami.
