Great Finish In Seattle: U-Dub Defeats Arizona By A Shoestring

A bizarre finish last night in Seattle. The Arizona Wildcats had a comfortable 33-21 lead on the Washington Huskies late in the 4th quarter when Jake Locker found Kavario Middleton for a 25 yard touchdown pass. to cut the Wildcat lead 33-28.

Then the bizarre happened. Arizona got the ball back but Nick Foles pass went off the foot of receiver Delashaun Dean and intercepted by U-Dub's Mason Foster who took it to the house.

Here are the highlights from FOXSPORTS.COM.

Check out post game sound with Jake Locker and Mason Foster from KING5 in Seattle.

"I just wanted to make sure when Mason caught it that he ran and didn't look around and then get caught and get tackled." Washington head coach Steve Sarkisian said. "I saw it right away. I had a great view of it."

Arizona head coach Mike Stoops chalked it up to a weird play.

"It's a run. Something that we were doing all night." Stoops said. "It's an either/or play, like everybody. He's doing what he's supposed to do. That's our fault for leaving the option for him to do that. That falls on me and our coaches. It's disappointing. It's just a freak play."
