The Birmingham Stallions looked like they were in trouble with just over nine minutes left in the fourth quarter.The Stallions had just fallen behind for the first time in the game when backup quarterback Alex McGough in for an injured J'Mar Smith threw an interception off the hands of CJ Marable. That gave the Philadelphia Stars the ball and a chance to extend their lead having already scored 14 unanswered points.McGough went to the sidelines, frustrated, and began to talk to his coach Skip Holtz. Holtz had a simple me sage for his quarterback."Don't get frustrated," Holtz said. "We're gonna win this game.""Don't get frustrated, we're gonna win this game."Listen in on Head Coach Skip Holtz as he gives feedback to his QB after the last interception USFL (@USFL) Holtz's words rang true. The Stallions forced a key three-and-out and McGough responded well to his interception. He led his Davis Webb Jersey team on an eight-play, 64-yard touchdown drive that gave the lead back to Birmingham.MORE:Then, linebacker Scooby Wright notched an interception on the first play of the next drive to give the Stallions a lead that they wouldn't relinquish.As critical as Wright's pick-six was in the Stallions' 33-30 win over the Stars, he refused to take individual credit for it. He wouldn't even wear the turnover chain after the big play because he wanted to celebrate the team aspect of the championship."Teamwork. Team, team, team," Wright said when asked about how the Stallions won the inaugural USFL championship. "Everyone pulling their weight. Offense, defense, special teams, coaches, we all just emptied the tank."The Sporting News tracked live scoring updates and highlights from Stars vs. Stallions on Sunday.
