Houston came to the Peach Bowl with fire in their hearts, ice in their grills, and trick plays in their playbooks. The Cougars dialed up this pretty wide receiver reverse pass by high school quarterback DeMarcus Ayers to take a 14-3 lead on Florida State:
This Houston trick play TD has Florida State on upset alert
H-Town is killing it in A-Town.
It looks like the first option on the play was to hit quarterback Greg Ward Jr. on a wheel route, but that was covered. Ayers stayed locked on Ward until the last secod, leading the defense to ignore Chance Allen in the end zone. When Ayers hurled the ball back against his body at the last second, there was nobody within a mile of Allen.
It’s actually Ayers’ second passing touchdown of the season -- he also threw a 29-yard TD against Navy. 2-for-2 with two touchdowns. Not bad.
The score is now 21-3 Cougars. Here is the video for “Still Tippin’” by Mike Jones ft. Paul Wall and Slim Thug:
