Mama Margie’s Major Meltdown: Air Force
Air Force
Every Thursday Sports Grind Entertainment will present you with the Mama Margie’s Major Meltdown. The recipient of this honor goes to Air Force in their unsuccessful attempt of a trick play at the Military Bowl. The game went back and forth with everything from a kickoff return for 87 yards. A pitch around the left end for 60, touchdown passes for 49 and 37 yards, multiple touchdowns scored on fourth downs and even a pair of botched onside kicks. Toledo and Air Force ran up the score early and often Wednesday at the Military Bowl and played to a wild finish, decided only when Air Force’s 2-point conversion attempt went awry with 52 seconds to play to give Toledo a 42-41 victory.
Air Force lined up to kick the extra point after Zach Kauth’s 33-yard touchdown catch on fourth-and-3 pulled the Falcons within a point. But holder David Baska ran the option instead and fumbled the ball toward kicker Parker Herrington, who chased it until it went out of bounds in the end zone.
