Moment #56: Ragone Catches Fire



Leading 6-3 at the half in their week five game at Penn, the Lions kicked off to the Quakers to start the 3rd quarter. And as soon as they got the ball, Penn looked like a different team on offense.

QB Billy Ragone took over, three of the first four plays of the drive featured two Ragone passes for a total of 25 yards and then a Ragone run for another 31.

Three plays later, Ragone found WR Conner Scott in the end zone for a 13 yard TD.

Just like that, the Quakers were back in the lead and it only took about two minutes.

The drive took a lot of wind out of the Columbia sails and would eerily foreshadow what was ahead for the Lions much later in the game.

Ragone made the plays and nobody from Columbia made a play to intercept,sack,or tackle for a loss on the drive.

That is what made Marcellus Wiley and Rory Wilfork special. They usually came up big and made the plays.
