-

Staff writer Gene Henley examines the scoring drives in UTC’s 24-21 twoovertim­e loss at Wofford:

FIRST QUARTER UTC — Victor Ulmo 20-yard field goal, 6:45

Drive: 14 plays, 72 yards, 8:15 Key play: The Mocs converted two third downs on the drive, the last on a 6-yard run by Darrell Bridges that moved the ball to the Wofford 23-yard line. UTC 3, WOFFORD 0

WOF — Lennox McAfee 14-yard run (Luke Carter kick), 0:24

Drive: 3 plays, 21 yards, 1:11 Key play: Wofford cornerback Devin Watson forced a fumble on the first play of the Mocs’ possession, giving the Terriers great starting field position. WOFFORD 7, UTC 3 SECOND QUARTER UTC — Ulmo 28-yard field goal, 5:56

Drive: 14 plays, 54 yards, 9:28 Key play: The Mocs converted a third and a fourth down on the possession, the latter with a 4-yard pass from Cole Copeland to Bingo Morton, but substituti­on-infraction and illegal-player-downfield penalties slowed the promising drive. WOFFORD 7, UTC 6 FOURTH QUARTER WOF — Andre Stoddard 2-yard run (Carter kick), 7:44 Drive: 13 plays, 70 yards, 6:24 Key play: Wofford quarterbac­k Brandon Goodson converted a fourth-and-1 at the UTC 35-yard line with a 2-yard plunge rup the middle. WOFFORD 14, UTC 6

UTC — Bingo Morton 6-yard pass from Copeland (Copeland pass from Morton), 0:16 Drive: 9 plays, 43 yards, 1:52 Key play: After Morton wrestled a perfectly placed Copeland pass from a Terriers defender for the score, Bridges lined up in the backfield, took a direct snap, ran left and pitched to Morton, who then threw a pass to a wide-open Copeland for the tying two-point conversion. UTC 14, WOFFORD 14

OVERTIME

WOF — Stoddard 2-yard run (Carter kick)

Drive: 6 plays, 25 yards Key play: Stoddard had 17 rushing yards on the drive, including a third-and-1 conversion on the play right before the touchdown. WOFFORD 21, UTC 14

UTC — Alphonso Stewart 11-yard pass from Copeland (Ulmo kick)

Drive: 5 plays, 25 yards Key play: Copeland threw to Joseph Parker for 10 yards on third-and-9 before hitting Stewart, who spun and stretched the ball into the end zone with a defender all over him. UTC 21, WOFFORD 21

WOF — Carter 34-yard field goal

Drive: 4 plays, 9 yards

Key play: Copeland’s pass on UTC’s second-overtime possession was intercepte­d by Watson, meaning the Terriers needed only a field goal to win. They ran three plays and Carter’s three-point kick was perfect. WOFFORD 24, UTC 21
