It was courtesy of the third-team offense when quarterback Derek Kiser hit Zach Carter for an 80-yard pass after Kiser took a sack the play before.
The play was simple. Kiser hit Carter on a bubble screen. Carter followed the blocks and had daylight in seconds on his way to the end zone.
Carter caught a second touchdown. This time it came from quarterback Nick Melvin.
