Davis tackling his own man on the fumble was absolutely necessary. What if a faster ECU player catches up to that guy and strips him of the ball? The best thing was to go to the ground and end the game.oxking;277794 said:That play was a microcosm of the entire night when luck went south. That call against our tight end for blocking which was one of the worst I've ever seen. Hardin reverting to bad form. Grier losing all sense of direction with his passes in his last turn. Oh, and don't let me forget his tripping of Cronkite on a hand off. And to top it all off, Davis tackling his own man to prevent a touchdown on the last play. What a scream!

Yes, it takes the way the ability of them to return a kick for a TD, throw a hail mary or whatever to score quickly then recover an onside kick to go for the win.
However, the last thing you do is tackle the guy. That's stupid, he's not expecting it, may not have the ball with three points of contact (because he thinks he's in the free) and you may be the one that forces the damn fumble.
I thought that roughing the punter was a cheap call. The punter landed on him. Totally against the spirit of the rule but the phantom blocking penalty on McGee was in the same vain. Of course, your list is right on.VulcanAlex;n278096 said:Plenty of issues.
Poor call on offensive pass interference early.
Missed field goals
poor choice of receivers
forcing the ball into coverage
locking into one receiver early
no outside running attack
multiple fumbles
No return game
roughing the punter
foolish 15 yard penalities
several badly missed throws by both of our QBs
That is most of the issues, without them we win this game easily, score a lot more points and give up fewer.
