Several components of senior quarterback Phillip Walker’s last second touchdown pass didn’t go as planned on Saturday night.
Before the play, redshirt-sophomore wide receiver Brodrick Yancy had to help redshirt-sophomore wide receiver Ventell Bryant, who made three catches to get the Owls’ to Central Florida’s 8-yard line, off the ground to avoid a 10-second runoff that might have ended the game.
The offensive line had some confusion about the play call and thought the Owls would spike the ball to stop the clock, Walker said. He added that redshirt-junior wide receiver Keith Kirkwood was the only player who ran a route on the final play.
