Just score the touchdown on 3rd down. That's all you have to do. Run it down to 15 seconds and get the TD. Super-low risk to do so.
he crossed the line before the ball came out. should have been a TD for Liberty.
Mack #8 is never gonna live that down after Liberty loses.
I'm guessing teams don't practice "not scoring" much. If at all.
It's a pretty easy concept. It's called taking a knee.
Mack is gonna get the crap but that is 100% on the coaches. Take a knee. Why risk a handoff even?
Commentator keeps running down the running back. Running back shouldn't of even had the ball. If you want to run the clock down just kneel with the QB.
Man I think he scored there before the fumble on that last replay they just showed again. Not nearly the Montgomery “fumble” at the end of the Liberty Bowl against Memphis but piecing those shots together half his body is over the line before you finally see the ball come out. Oh well.
Honestly, I blame coaches more than the player in that situation. Don't do something you don't practice - and I doubt they practiced this situation.
I can honestly say in all my years of playing football I have NEVER practiced it.
That call is on the coaches to be honest ... why even hand it off if u dont want to score the td.
That is insane. I feel sick for that poor kid who was only doing what he was told, which was 100% against everything he has ever been tought in his life. He only did what he was told, and it’s sick. Analytics are “great”, but common sense is pretty nice too. Take the ******* points!!!
Almost looked like the RB was trying to reach the ball back and keep it out of the end zone. Hard to tell, but if so, that’s incredibly dumb. Job #1 is ball security.
Pretty sure Kansas practices this on a regular basis.
