Matt Turman threw a touchdown pass late against
Arizona State in 1995 to make the score 77-28; I think
there was a minute left in the game.  In fairness,
Turman was following a preset audible that said if a
defense lined up a certain way, audible to the deep
out.  There was no caveat that said not to do that if
we're trying to run out the clock.
