BOCA RATON, Fla. — To hear the head coach tell it, Jordan Ferguson's 71-yard fumble recovery for the touchdown that essentially iced the game late in the fourth quarter against Florida Atlantic was a near religious experience to go through on the sideline, complete with falling to your knees, prayer, and the most essential ingredient: joy.
"I was watching it and went down to my knees because I thought we had the interception," Rick Stockstill said, hinting he thought N'Kosi Perry's fumble had a shot at being ruled a forward pass.
