A tragedy of errors. I watched Burfict do that repeatedly at ASU. No surprise he went from a projected first-round pick to undrafted altogether. He once cost the Sun Devils a game with a late hit that drew a flag for 15 then got tagged another 15 for bitching to the ref about it--Stanford got the winning score moments later. Dennis Erickson benched him because of his lack of control on the field--the same Dennis Erickson who made his bones at University of Miami coaching that group of fine gentlemen!!!
EDITED: actually, Burfict's Stanford penalty was a facemask, not late hit. There were so many personal fouls that I get them mixed up--- he had 16 in his last 26 games at ASU.
