One Point Safety Dance, Disco Duck Version

We had a repeat of history in the Fiesta Bowl; back in the 2004 Texas-Texas A&M game, we had this, as I noted at the time-

On a botched extra point try by Texas, the Aggies recovered the kick at their one, then fumbled it back into the endzone, where they recovered it and fell on it. That gave the Longhorns a one-point safety.

We just had the same play, with KSU trying to run back a blocked extra point; in tonight's case, they lateraled it back and got tackled, but it was a safety still, which is worth a point on a converstion try for Oregon.

The ESPN announcer covered the 2004 game, saying it was 10 years ago. A bit over 8, actually.
