Did you see that last Cincy fumble off a bad snap?  A ucf player was literally a step away from scooping it up and running almost 100 yards for a game winning td with no time left.....my goodness!

I guess I'm an old fart. How do you not go up 10 with a 90 second to go?

Announcers said it was actually a good move but I didn't get it either ......maybe a healthy respect for the UCF offense ..... but the Kanigits only had 1 timeout left to score 10 points in 1:30. What was even dumber to me was the final play call. Take a delay of game penalty to see exactly how many seconds left .... you don't freaking go into the shotgun ..... have qb take direct snap and just backpeddle for the 3 or 4 seconds and take a knee.

Personally, I thought that they were going to go Willie Taggert on 4th down and pound it in

I was real surprised they lined up in a shotgun 

Imagine if the UCF DB had been able to scoop the ball and take off?

Run out the clock to 3 seconds since ucf only had 1 TO.  

The risk by going up by 10 is ucf scores quick and gets the onside kick.  On the other hand doing what they did is you risk fumbling the ball and giving it back to them only up by 3....which they almost did.

If it was me like most of you.  I try and score the TD and leave it to my D and good hands people if an onside kick. Alot has to go right for ucf to pull that off.

Yeah that shotgun formation waa idiotic.  I have no idea why you would even think about doing that.  I guess they figured they could run out the clock....but risk/reward?

Luke had c and the points, it was a smart play and he was able to cash his ticket and still win the game, this is what you would call a win win

If it was anyone besides UCF, I would've loved to have seen that happen.
