Syracuse wasn't the only team to pull off an upset Friday night. California stunned No. 8 Washington State, crushing the Cougars 37-3 in Berkeley.
Golden Bears quarterback Ross Bowers provided the dagger early in the fourth quarter, and also provided what's possibly the highlight of the year so far.
On third-and-goal, Bowers dashed for the end zone. Before he could be stopped by two Cougar defenders, the sophomore signal-caller executed an incredible acrobatic front flip across the goal line for the score.
Ross Bowers learned that flip from his mom, Joanne Bowers, the former Washington gymnastics coach.

"I didn't think I could go left or right, so why not over the top," Bowers told reporters after the game. " So, luckily I was able to land safely."
