ECU vs UCF

ECU just lost on a Haily Mary touchdown throw by UCF as time expired to lose 32-30. Amazing...

Poor play calling on the last drive (taking a knee). Should have never taken a 10 yard sack on 4th down. Throw the ball up in the air or do something. I also could not believe that three cornerbacks for ECU allowed a receiver to get behind them. Major Meltdown.

Wow!! Like a lot of their fans, I left the game after they took the lead late in the game and then intercepted the UCF pass.

Exactly, I was watching and thinking why are they taking a knee only up 4 and unable to run the rest of the time off. That was probably the worst clock management by a team with the lead I've seen in a while.

Mike Smith level clock management, is what I said. Ruffin, or someone on his staff, should've known they needed to get a first to seal it...or at least try and run the football to take some more time off. What a trainwreck their season ended up being after such a good start.

That said - I think Carden gets a look in the pros. Big, strong, and can move.

I was thinking ECU should have used a quick kick on 4th down just to run time and move the ball down the field. WOW!
