This same team and coach used this option in the 1999 5A state championship game with 5 seconds left in the first half. When they tried the field goal it failed which resulted in a touchback. The only problem was that the timekeeper started the clock and allowed it expire. The teams thinking that the clock had expired left the field. The officials after discussing it for a time made the teams come back out on the field and run the final 5 seconds off of the clock. It was funny listening to the crowd discussing what had just happened.
