Midway through the fourth we stopped them on 3rd and long. A flag was thrown for a chop block. I think almost reflexively coaches will wave it off to get the ball back on the punt, but Ferentz showed his extreme faith in his defense and accepts the penalty, pinning them back further. The deafening crowd noise then causes another false start, and after NOTHER hawkeye stop they are forces to punt from their own end zone. Pretty sure that’s the sequence that gets us the ball midfield for the game winning TD.
That ballsy call probably won us the game.
