Mission Impossible: The Chase Mummau Edition

via GIPHY

In every game, there are always a handful of key plays that make or break a game, and last night was no different. One play completely reshaped the path of this game.

No.

Not that one.

With 1:43 left in the third quarter, VT faced a 4th and 10 from OKST's 46 yard line, and Fuente sends out our trusty #95 to boot the ball away, which makes sense except for the fact that our punter, Oscar Bradburn, wears #91.

Last night, #95 was apparently worn by walk-on QB Chase Mummau, WHO SPENT THE ENTIRE SEASON WEARING NUMBER 18.

The layers of this subterfuge are incredible. Fuente (or maybe Shibest) had a walk-on QB wear a different number normally reserved for specialists in case we ended up in a situation where we needed to fake a punt, all in the hope of preventing the other team from realizing our "punter" isn't a punter. THEY EVEN CHANGED HIS HOKIESPORTS PROFILE .

Mummau completes a perfect throw to Sheggog (!!) for a first down, and if Kumah had hauled in the TD pass which Jackson put on the money at the end of that drive, this play could've gone down in Hokie History.

We all know what happened instead, but I will not let this play die in obscurity.

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
β€œI served in the United States Navy"
