Quote from Matthew Bartlett on October 31, 2020, 2:30 PMUgh. Pass is dropped on third down and Rice will line up for a field goal. Prior to that, Rice had picked up four consecutive first downs on four plays.
Wonderful drive stalls out after three straight hollow plays from inside the five yard live. But, Rice takes the lead.
