The Toledo Rockets finally won the GameAbove Sports Bowl in six overtimes on Thursday, and only after they thought they had closed out the game twice before.
Toledo beat Pitt 48-46 at Ford Field in Detroit in one of the more dramatic games of the bowl season. The Rockets had two previous game-winning plays wiped out, one by a penalty and another by replay review, before finally closing out the Panthers.
In the fourth overtime, Toledo thought it had won on a sack on the mandatory two-point conversion attempt, and even stormed onto the field to celebrate. However, most of the players had failed to notice that there was a flag on the field, and Toledo was called for defensive holding.
