As in Sam Wyche calling an onside kick when leading the Oilers 45-0 because he (rightly as it turned out) detested Jerry Glanville? Lest we forget he also went for it on fourth down while leading 38-0 and even kicked a FG in the closing seconds.
Say what you will but Sam Wyche knew how to motivate. Remember:

Sounds like the kind of coach I would have loved to watch.

It sounds like the kind of coach that gets someone hurt with a dirty shot for running up the score...
