Brown's OT interception turns into 23-20 Capitalist victory

Huntington Beach, CA (AP) - At times, the Oregon Ice game at Huntington Beach looked more like a roller coaster ride than a football game. The Ice fell behind early, battled to a 10-point lead, blew it in the fourth quarter, rallied to tie as time expired in regulation, and finally lost on a clutch 49-yard field goal that was set up by an Oregon interception. The victory allowed Huntington Beach (3-0) to stay perfect on the year.
"All I can say is, 'wow'," said Capitalist QB
Jesus Dennis (191 yards, 2TD, 1INT), who was named player of the game. "We knew it was going to be a close game, but not that close."
"The guys played their hearts out," said a disappointed GM
Grid Iron. "But we made too many mistakes."
The biggest mistake was the interception thrown by Oregon QB
Maurice Brown (202 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT) in overtime. On Oregon’s second possession of overtime, the Ice seemed to have the momentum, getting a first down after an 11-yard completion to WR
Alden Roy at the Oregon 43. Unfortunately, two false starts later the team was facing first-and-20 from the 33. Brown tried to go to Roy again, but Capitalist LCB
Bennie Seawright stepped in front of the pass at the Oregon 39 for the pick.
The Ice defense responded well, forcing Huntington Beach into a fourth-and-three, but Irving Davis nailed the 49-yard kick to seal the victory.
Grid Iron refused, however, to place the blame solely on his quarterback. "We had them right where we wanted them," Iron said of his team’s 10-point lead to start the fourth quarter. "But we weren’t able to close it out."
Finishing has been a problem for the Ice (2-1). Through three games, the Ice are allowing an average of just 8.0 points in the first three quarters. In the final period, however, Oregon is allowing an average of 10.0 points per game.
"Maurice (Brown) should never have been in that position (to throw the interception)," said Ice DE
Brian Vanegas, who had 1.5 of Oregon's four sacks. "We need to play all four quarters and finish the other team off."
