Watch: Washington surprises kicker with scholarship after hitting game-winning FG vs. Washington State

Gross created a memory he won't soon forget, but how Washington ended up in position for the walk-off field goal will forever leave a bitter taste in the mouths of Washington State fans. 

With the Huskies driving late near midfield, officials flagged Washington State defensive lineman Kyle Thornton for a questionable, at best, rough the passer penalty. 

Instead of facing second down a step inside Washington State territory with under a minute to go, the penalty moved Washington to the 27-yard line. 

Five plays later, Gross kicked one through the uprights before being carried off the field.
