Miami is up 17-7 in the 3rd. UCF comes up with a defensive stop, forcing a punt. Miami snaps the ball over the punter's head and the punter alertly boots the ball out of the back of the endzone. UCF decides to take the penalty for illegal kicking. This takes a sure 2 points off the board. What happens? UCF throws an INT and they get nothing...

You're the coach what do you do?

I say you take the 2 and the probable good field position.

Either way, you get the ball in good field position. So take the points. Wow, that's Croom-esque.

why George O'Leary had to lie on his resume'.

Oh, and yeah, you take the two points AND the ball on the free kick. The score would be 17-9, and then a TD and a 2 point conversion could tie the game, or if you screw that up, you're only down two and then you could take the lead with a stop on defense and a FG.
