There were so many “key” plays to the game and you could easily say the ****** LBer play cost us the game but I look at a special teams play as perhaps the pivotal moment in the game.
Manny is faced with a 4th and about a yard and a half. Go for it and potentially ice the game or kick it and pin them deep.
Manny makes the right call, IMO and decides to let his all American punter pin them deep and force them to drive the length of the field.
Lou kicks yet another perfect punt. The ball hits inside the 20 and the punt returner opts to let it bounce.
Every special teams coach in the country teaches their gunners when the see the fair catch call inside the 20 to run to the goal line and keep that ball out of the end zone.
Couch and Avante Williams stand next to the return guy and watch the ball bounce and run into the end zone.
It was a perfect kick and FSU should have started that drive inside their 5. Instead they get the touchback and then we let a receiver get behind our safeties. The whole final drive was a tutorial on how to get fired as a football coach. That said the special teams *** up set the table.
Patke should be drawn and quartered.
