So many big plays, so many mistakes, so many plot twists, so many emotional shifts.
And yes, an inadvertent signal. Bet you didn’t have that one in the office pool.
But the scoreboard doesn’t lie and when the clock hit zero the score read Pittsburgh 33 Duke 30.
If you turned the game off sometime during the third quarter you missed one of the great comebacks in Duke history, a 27-0 run that put Duke up 30-27 with 90 seconds left.
But a Pitt offense that had been stymied for much of the second half marched down the field, 82 yards worth of field in less than a minute against a Duke defense that needed one big play but couldn’t get it.
