Season Ends On Losing Note
After Mike Wegzyn threw 2 INTs and his offense failed to score a single point in the first half, AJ Doyle and his option-style offense took the field to start the second half.
Points immediately hit the board on the very first drive as Lorenzo Woodley needed to plunge into the endzone on 4th down. Another score early in the 4th quarter made it a 14-13 UMass lead.
A little more than a minute later, Ohio was in the endzone once again. The 2-point conversion failed, leaving the Bobcats up 19-14.
After Wegzyn completed two beautiful passes, he made one horrendous one that prompted Coach Molnar to go back to the option game. Working against the clock, AJ Doyle drove the Minutemen down the field. It was now 2nd and goal on the 7-yard line, Doyle called for a speed option right. As he turned the corner, the MLB came out of nowhere and blew him up, causing a fumble and ending the comeback attempt.
