CMU went for two and failed, but the Popeyes Bowl will be forever remembered for this play.
Some are calling it the greatest play in College Football history. I don’t know if it will stand the test of time like Doug Flutie’s hail mary or Auburn 1 second FG return TD, but the degree of difficulty is crazy.
I would imagine the odds of this play succeeding are less that the Browns finding a Franchise QB in the next 30 years, so you know the odds were long. Add into that CMU was down 49-14 at one point, no one expected a finish like this, but when the bowl is sponsored by Popeyes, you knew there had to be a spicy finish.
You would have thought after that crazy play they would have had a better 2-point conversion play, but they didn’t.
