The play — and call — will be seen and heard over and over.
UFC lost to Baylor on Saturday, 36-35, but it wasn’t due to a lack of effort by Timmy McClain.
The Knights quarterback came up with a miraculous conversion on fourth down that saw him all over the field, backing up to the end zone, before delivering a strike that gave UFC a first down.
McClain was faced with a fourth-and-6 at the UFC 30 with 43 seconds left.
Somehow, he wound up back by the end zone before finding RJ Harvey for 16 yards and a first down.
WOAH 😱🤯
McClain is INSANE 😤 @BUFootball pic.twitter.com/bDlSveU8fe
