I had a coil do that to me. Ran awesome, then nothing, just like someone flicked a switch. I'm betting its a spark issue. If it was a fuel issue it would have started to lose power over a few seconds, spit and sputter, and then die out.
2 things you can check for spark:

and to make sure the coil is being told to fire (and it probably is and just not doing it):

I soldered up all the crimped connections and (Ta-Da!), problem solved.
Hope it's that easy for you.
