Right on. I am a huge KAY supporter but learned something today.
At the time, I assumed KAY was injured and that’s why he didn’t finish the game even though he came back and scored a TD after that hit and being down for bit. However, now I don’t think that was the case and KAY probably could have played because BH commented about this in his post game presser and said Fife finished the game because he (Fife) does things well that they wanted to do at the end of the game or words to that effect. I think this meant they had the lead and wanted to manage the game and run the clock out. That is some next level coaching and the two headed QB beast is very effective and difficult for defenses to prepare for and corral.
Most backup QBs are just that—backups. Break glass in case of emergency. Or maybe a change of pace type, like suck state a few years ago, or used only for a better match up against certain teams.
Today was different. Fife was more like a closer, and used similarly in the MoState game too. Very cool.
