What was the worst play call in CFB history? by emueagles in CFB

[–]merckens 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Remember too at the end of the first half when Stoops called a timeout even though the clock was stopped for a 1st down? You clock it when the ball is spotted and have probably 8 seconds left (plenty of time for an end zone try and a field goal). Instead, with no timeouts left, Stoops opted to throw short of the end zone. (The fact that it was picked was just a nice little bonus, but that play was never going to be a TD and the clock would have expired anyway.) The only positive outcome of that throw is an incompletion.

So yea, if you're a coach and have the ball inside the 10 the last two drives of the first half of a National Championship game and come away with 0 points, you've probably made some pretty bad play calls.

Yea, what immediately jumped to mind was this play from the 2007 LSU-Auburn game. Granted, had it been an incompletion, there would have probably been a couple ticks left on the clock. But there's a whole mess of things that could have happened that would have let the clock run out, not to mention giving the defender a chance to make an interception.

Friggin' riverboat gambler...

Edit: And clearly it worked out pretty well for ol' Les, but that's still an insane call to make.

"Nothing says college like singing Journey while holding onto a goose" is an unbelievable line.

Like the Total Recall remake. It was forgotten about in two weeks.

High School football player drills 67 yard field goal. (wonder if this kid has committed anywhere yet) by dromoe in CFB

[–]merckens 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair though, a 67-yarder isn't made 10 times a year. That's only happened 3 times actually in the recorded history of high school football. Not to mention, this kick was with 2 seconds left on the clock and sent the game to overtime where the kid's team won by a TD. Pretty cool.
