That was one of the dumbest coaching decisions I've seen in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he was maybe banking on an interception or something but didn't he realize that was the ECU defense out there?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend and I were shocked when we saw this; it just put the icing on the retarded cake for ECU's coaching staff. I think UCF could beat ECU, or at least outcoach them, and if all else fails O'Leary is bigger and the game could be decided on arm wrestling 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
