UCF defensive back Braeden Marshall thought he had a pick 6 after returning an interception 71 yards for a touchdown against No. 9 Iowa State early in the fourth quarter.
However, replay review ruled that Marshall dropped the ball before crossing the goal line, taking the score off the board and keeping the Knights’ narrow lead at 28–27.
But since no one from either Iowa State or UCF touched the ball in the end zone after Marshall dropped it, the Knights maintained possession and had first-and-goal at 1-yard line.
On the next play, RJ Harvey ran the ball in for a touchdown. That erased what could have been a crucial, inexplicable mistake by Marshall.
UCF failed to hold its lead and eventually lost to Iowa State, 38-35.
He is the latest player to make such a blunder, joining players like Oregon’s Noah Whittington, Utah’s Kaelin Clay, Alabama’s Ty Simpson, Clemson’s Ray Ray McCloud and — perhaps most memorably — Philadelphia Eagles receiver DeSean Jackson in football infamy. And Jackson did it twice!
