Trailing 31-28 with a few seconds left and NC State with the ball on 4th down. NC State QB takes the snap and backs into the endzone for the safety to make it 31-30 and run out the clock.

But the ball was stripped and Vandy recovered to win the game 35-31.

That is some Gamecock luck right there.

I betcha they won't do that again. Total idiocy. Just pure idiocy. There's no other explanation.

If I was NC State's AD, that coach would not be allowed on the bus. He'd be fired, immediately.

Yeah, I thought it was a dumb play call and poor execution by the QB. 6 seconds is a lot of time to burn when you are standing in the endzone. It would have been different if the QB had more room to work with, but he had nowhere to run.

Of course, NC State should not have gone conservative on the other three downs when Vandy had 2 timeouts.

Not sure why we need multiple threads about the Vandy game. There was already one open. As I stated in other thread: that should get NC State officially fired as he had been on hot seat for years. NC State qb is too dumb to know how to take a knee.

Not only the play. But Vandy called timeouts. Then nc state took a delay of game leading up to that disastrous call. Absolute garbage by the coach.
