Wednesday night MACtion has yet again delivered with some midweek excitement.
During this evening’s matchup between Kent State and Bowling Green, the Golden Flashes attempted a wild trick play on 3rd-and-8 from the 13-yard-line.
Quarterback Collin Schlee faked like he was walking off the field as he barked over at the sideline. While this happened, running back Marquez Cooper took a direct snap in hopes of catching the defense off guard.
The play failed miserably — resulting in a two-yard gain.
Take a look at the play here:
This failed trick play in the first quarter didn’t stop Kent State’s creativity on the offensive end. The team’s first touchdown of the game came after Schlee faked a QB draw and hit Bryan Bradford with a 14-yard lob.
Fortunately for the Golden Flashes, this first embarrassing attempt didn’t cost them too much. The team currently leads Bowling Green 20-0 at halftime.
Kent State is 3-6 on the year. Bowling Green is 5-4.
If tonight’s lead holds, both teams will get closer to the .500 mark.
