College Football is a notoriously chaotic sport. Sometimes, the chaos is man made. One great example is from the Illinois-Rutgers game from just this season. Rutgers lead by one point with 13 seconds left. Illinois was at 4th and long at the Rutgers 40, needing a score to win the game. Initially, Illinois coach Bret Bielema sent kicker Ethan Moczulski on to try the 58 yard field goal. He missed it, he wasn’t even close in the accuracy department. However, Rutgers coach Greg Schiano called timeout to ice him. On a 58 yard field goal. In college. Which would be a career long. With thirteen seconds left. Where if Moczulski made the kick, he just wasted a valuable timeout for nothing. However, Moczulski didn’t make his attempt. That’s because Illinois went for it on fourth down. Rutgers ran a heavy blitz, which Luke Altmyer successfully detected, hitting Pat Bryant, who would run all the way for the game winning score. So, to celebrate the stupidity of this sport that we love so much, what is the stupidest or worst decision or moment you’ve seen in College football history?
