Game 83: Cover Blown

The Cincinnati Bearcats (-3) raced out to a 17-0 lead on the SMU Mustangs and led 29-14 to start the fourth quarter with Ryan Coe in to attempt a 44 yard field goal to put Cinci up by three scores. But a blocked FG and two backdoor touchdowns later–one of those TDs a tipped pass on fourth down from 16-yards out–and the Mustangs were a 2-point conversion away from tying the game. The defense regrouped and held, the Bearcats winning SU but crumbling ATS 29-27.
