While some of us were engrossed in the Dallas Cowboys win over the Chicago Bears (well, at least part of the game), college football had a wild finish in the American Athletic Conference. UCF beat East Carolina 32-30 thanks to a Hail Mary at the end of the game. ECU had stormed back from a 26-9 fourth quarter deficit to take a 30-26 lead. However, UCF got the last word in, thanks to a wild Hail Mary.
The San Francisco 49ers have players representing both skills, fullback Bruce Miller and practice squad wide receiver Lance Lewis. It sounds like there might have been a friendly wager between teammates.
@Lance_Lewis1 Hahahahahahahaha dancing and celebrating a little too early ! I'll have some UCF gear for you tomorrow #hailmary

If you missed the game, it was not just a Hail Mary. Check out No. 39 in this GIF. He is already starting to take his helmet off before the play is even finished. I don't even know what to say about this. Well, other than, I hope Lance Lewis is ready for some black and gold.
Fooch's Update: The defensive back says he was not taking off his helmet, but instead just trying to avoid pass interference.
