Worst fake of the year? College football team horribly botches FG play

Down 17-0 against Buffalo, Bowling Green had an opportunity to cut into the deficit. Deep in Buffalo territory, the Falcons decided that it was time to try a fake field goal instead of kicking for 3 points. It did not go as planned.
The toss from the holder to the kicker did not go smoothly, as you can see in the clip below.
So Bowling Green tried that fake field goal that Oklahoma just ran and it didn’t work out. Matter of fact it failed hilariously but the Buffalo TD return was called back for a block in the back. (very sickos video quality) pic.twitter.com/7hDjf8Vw0U

Fortunately for the Falcons, the touchdown was called back due to a blindside block call.
That Bowling Green fake FG was literally the most predictable call I’ve ever seen. Bulls ball. @bigsgkey scoop and score is negated by a WEAK call blind side block. Bulls ball.

The Buffalo-Bowling Green Over has died. A failed Fake FG that was returned for a TD and then brought back and then a run being stuffed on the 1. This game should be 24-7 and it’s 17-0. This is what I get for betting MACTION.
