This is nothing: F2 erred in dropping the ball, so I'm not helping the defense here.
Thanks law and Bret for confirming my assessment of the play. Next time I'll push PU a little harder.
I think that if we had ignored the OBS on the OP and gone with UI, we might have had an issue with a coach, since enforcing UI would have involved a run coming off the board. OTOH, they were mercied in that game even with the run...
