Sixty minutes weren’t enough for Bowling Green and Eastern Kentucky.
And neither were one, nor two, nor even three overtimes.
It took seven extra sessions in all for the FCS’s Colonels to upset the Falcons 59-57 at Doyt Perry Stadium on Saturday — the longest game in Bowling Green football history and only the seventh FBS game since the institution of overtime in 1995 to require seven overtime periods.
A two-point conversion pass from Eastern Kentucky quarterback Parker McKinney to running back Braedon Sloan represented the winning points in the third FCS-over-FBS upset of the young 2022 season.
