This might be the most damnedest thing you’ll ever see in college football. Until next Saturday.
Trailing Mississippi State 57-14, Louisiana Tech had set itself up for a bit of feel-good with a second-and-goal from the MSU six-yard line at the start of the fourth quarter in Starkville. About 15 seconds of game time later, the Bulldogs were facing a third-and-goal... FROM THEIR OWN SEVEN-YARD LINE.
Yep, they lost 87 yards on a single play.
Yep, Tech faced what was essentially a third-and-93. Which they didn’t convert, obviously.
In one play, the Group of Five Bulldogs went from six yards to paydirt to 93 yards away from the end zone. In. One. Play.
Yep, college football remains the best. Still.
