If you don't succeed, you will become a beneficiary, put aside the victory and defeat, and the next time is to enjoy the game.
With this in mind, the Wolverine's offensive group began to attack in a crucial first gear.
“ATTACK!”
Yi Fan took the tee shot and quickly stepped back, as far away from Cleon as possible, giving the pocket a little more time to delay. Thirty-five yards to the touchdown area. Pfister's 40-run sprint time in training was 4.52 seconds, but this was a game, and after the confrontation with the opposing cornerback, it was generally difficult to maintain this speed, so Yifan said that the ball would fall into the touchdown area after 5 seconds.
Of course, counting the time the ball travels in the air, the pocket is barely enough as long as it can last for three and a half seconds.
After seeing the intention of the Wolverine, Cleon also led the forward players to launch a final onslaught on Yi Fan, Yi Fan's position has retreated ten yards from the tee line, to about forty-five yards, passing the ball at this distance, invisibly increasing the difficulty of his pass, but considering the stability of the pocket, Yi Fan had to sacrifice the distance of ten yards.
Pfister looked back as he reached the fifteen-yard line, and the cornerman was three or four yards behind him, and small black dots in the air that looked like a leather ball.
"It looks like we got the ball out."
Pfister's mind flashed quickly, the ten people in front of him had already paved the way for him, and now it was up to him to see if he could go on his own in the last part of the road.
Thinking of this, Pfister couldn't help but speed up his pace, and the safety guard, who was attracted to the middle by McGee and Luiz, also ran in his direction after seeing the pass, and it was estimated that he would be able to arrive soon.
Pfister had to get to the landing point faster to hold the ball in order to avoid being caught between two or even three people.
"This long pass from the Wolverines is a bit abrupt, and I guess the Cardinals didn't expect the opponent to attack the touchdown zone in that position."
Moric nodded in satisfaction, the more times like this, the more you have to let go, just like baseball's nine-inning, two-out, rugby games are often more exciting at the last minute. It is precisely because of the desperate situation that people will burst out with strong fighting spirit and extraordinary ability, thus creating many miracles that seem impossible to achieve.
The moment Pfister stepped on the end line, the ball was only a few meters away from him, he skillfully sprinted forward to adjust, and jumped back to his height, allowing the high-speed movement of the ball to hit his chest, using his strong pectoral muscles to dissolve the momentum of the ball, and then held the ball firmly into his chest with both hands, the whole muscle tensed, ready to accept the impact of the opponent's cornerback.
Just as Pfister had thought, the opposing cornerback arrived at about the same time and stabbed the ball into his arms.
However, Pfister was prepared early in the morning, and this stab was avoided by him, and it did not go directly to the ball.
Then the two men rolled up and fell into the formation area.
At this moment, several referees made a gesture of successful touchdowns, although according to the practice of the game, every touchdown had to watch the replay at this time, but everyone could see that this touchdown was genuine and there was nothing wrong with it.
“!”
Pfister kept waving his fists excitedly, and this kind of long-distance receiving touchdown was the most fulfilling, and it felt like the army taking the head of a general.
"I didn't expect it to be done. It seems that the team is still quite strong, and this game is quite interesting. Singlet couldn't have imagined that the Wolverines would launch a last-minute counterattack, and the attacking team, who had been silent for a game, won two touchdowns in the final moments to pull them back from the brink of death.
Singer is the first time to explain the situation of the Wolverine, but Moric is different, so in the previous time, he didn't talk too much, he just felt that there would be such a scene, but he didn't expect it to really appear.
After George's shot, the Wolverines narrowed the score to six points, 17-23, and it only took one touchdown to equalize the score, and the extra points could turn the game around.
"But the main thing is that there is not enough time, not to mention that they only have one timeout left, and now there are a little more than three minutes left on the court, as long as the Cardinals win a first attack and consume less than a minute and a half, the game will be over."
While scoring points, time becomes the enemy of the Wolverine. As with the point difference, time is now an advantage for the Cardinals, and with a little control, they can wear each other to death.
There are many examples of this kind of chasing points until the last minute, but falling in time, whether it is a league or an NCAA game, it is counted in tens or hundreds of games. The Wolverines are likely to repeat the mistakes of the past right now.
"We've worked very hard, and I'm sure the fans and friends here have seen it, so we're worthy of the crowd who supported us. The last one defense, just do your best and enjoy the game. ”
Johnson still maintained his indifferent attitude, and did not mention the touchdown just now, and he naturally knew that the achievements of the offensive group would be translated into pressure on the defensive group, rather than motivation.
"Rest assured, we will do our best to defend the opposite side and prevent them from getting a first attack."
Leonard was on the field with the Secret Service team, and at the moment they needed to defend the opposing counter-attack. So far in the game, what the opponent has to do is to consume time, but it is not ruled out that they will also try to advance the attack, after all, as long as they take another free kick, the Wolverines will not be able to save it no matter how great their ability is.
However, George's tee shot was not leaky, not only flying very high, but also flying far enough, falling near the opponent's fifteen-yard line, suppressing the opponent while giving his teammates time to sprint to defend, and the cardinals' return attacker saw that there was no chance, and he also knelt on one knee with a good understanding and did not make a rash rush.
"The Wolverines are a very good kicker, at this time, the kick-off is still so solid, it seems that until now, there have been no goals conceded on goal."
Morić took a look at the stats, and compared to the previous kicker Ashley, George's stats looked better by more than a notch or two. In terms of shooting success rate, Ashley averages only about 40%, while George's success rate is 100% so far.
At the same time, on the teeer, his stats are also very eye-catching, there is a two-in-ten chance of kicking into the opponent's 20 yards, although the number of games is not particularly many, the data is not necessarily representative, but just this ball shows his mentality and skills, like this performance, enough for him to participate in the draft.
At this time, in the preparation area of the Cardinals, Alex was discussing the final tactical arrangements with the coaching staff. The coaching staff's meaning is clear, give Mariotta a ground sprint, two or three yards per offensive is enough, and then end the game by playing a short distance and using the most traditional run-and-run pass.
"But I don't want to use the lowest level of attrition, I'm going to go head-to-head with them and let them know that our offense is not covered."
Alex refused. In this game, he felt very good, and after seeing Yi Fan's pass touchdown, he didn't know where the anger came from.
