Cole Kizziah was sitting in his apartment this week when he got the call he was going to play in the Conference USA championship game. Who is Kizziah? He’s a walk-on long snapper for the UAB Blazers, and he has paid his own way through school for the past three years.
Chuck Landon on Marshall’s failed comeback.

Play calling that doesn’t adjust to the game? Yep.
