It was fourth down and Wabash was on its own 18 yard line. All we needed was a few feet for a first down. All DePauw needed was a stop to have the ball deep in Wabash territory. Wabash called for a quarterback sneak…a play that wasn’t in the play book. Why? Because Matt Hudson told his coach he would make the first down.
That’s what makes the Bell game so special. The unknown is always a distinct possibility. Like a tipper Hail Mary pass play. Like a 47 year field goal from a kicker that hadn’t kicked one before. That’s why they play the game.
