D-3 SUNY Cortland Wins Rivalry Game On Muffed FG Turned Touchdown
Down three on fourth down in the final seconds against Ithaca College, SUNY Cortland lined-up for a game-tying field goal. "Lined-up" is really a misnomer here, as the field goal team seemed very confused, and the holder plum forgot for a few seconds that he was supposed to be playing. When the sn...
