Wikipedia has all the answers:
"a one point conversion safety can only be scored by the offense in high school and professional play;[19][21] however, in college play a conversion safety can be scored by either the offense or the defense.[20] Although a defensive conversion safety has never been scored, it is the only possible way a team could finish with a single point in an American football game.[22]

Conversion attempt recovered by defensive team, they try and run it back for a two point conversion. Offense goes to prevent it after he's run say 95 yards, and causes the defender to fumble it. Someone on offense recovers, but doesn't fall on it. Picks it up to try ad return it back for 2 or just is stupid. Runs back into his own end zone, then is tackled. 1 point conversion.

According to wikipedia, the defense can score safety on a conversion attempt, which is worth one point: 

 

A much rarer occurrence is the one-point conversion safety, which can be scored by the offense on a try attempt. In college football, the defense can also score a conversion safety; while this has never happened, it is the only possible way an American football team could finish a game with a single point.

At first I was thinking this would be impossible because you'd have to score 1st ... but I suppose the other team could score, botch a play, somehow fall all the way back to their own endzone, and be tackled in their own endzone for a 1 point safety. Assuming that'd be a 1 point safety as opposed to just a failed PAT.

has a funny looking release and that might be the thing that hurts his NFL chances, at least he can take solace in the fact that he has a hot wife.

His only chance is wide receiver or Tim Tebow Wildcat package.

Why would you not just blitz the hell out KState? They aren't a vertical threat IMO.

I don't understand why Kansas State was taking their sweet ass time on the last drive

This actually turned out to be a relatively boring game, IMO. After the opening kickoff fireworks it just seemed like blah.

I was about to say the same thing. Tool Kenjon Barner and the Ducks offense a while to get going. Oregon's defense looked very solid.

Any game, and I mean ANY GAME, that features a one point safety is not boring. That and Oregon got to 35 as such: 8-15-22-25-32-35...those look like some mighty fine powerball numbers to me.

...drink...this is a terrible idea

The Oregon fight song is pretty crappy.  They need to come up with a better one.

I watch Oregon and i'm a little bit sad.  There was a time when they were our goal-state offense, when we had Denard and Tate, and our "spread and shred" was shiny and new and all things were possible.

Now Denard is gone and the last remains of the spread offense will be packed up and stored away.  

It was a fun dalliance or a while.  But summer vacation is over and now it's back to school.

Rich Rod's offense is not the same as Oregon's.  Oregon's is more pass oriented.

Hello, NFL.  Didn't give much indication he'd be back, and confirmed that his agent is talking; he was just waiting until the end of the season.
