This season marks 50 years since Garo Yepremian’s unfortunate attempt at a pass as the Miami Dolphins looked to finish off a perfect season against Washington in the Super Bowl.
That could have been the inspiration for Bowling Green’s brutal attempt at an actual fake field goal Saturday against Buffalo.
As a warning, the scoop and score didn’t count for Buffalo.
However, the Falcons’ futility is worth watching as a tribute to what can go wrong with the ball in the hands of the wrong people
Bowling Green’s fake field goal did not go as planned … 😳

As a point of clarity, Yepremian’s “pass” was attempted after he had a field-goal attempt blocked.
