On the final play of the first-ever triple-overtime game in Ohio University football history, Ohio’s redshirt senior quarterback Greg Windham was sacked on a failed two-point conversion attempt to seal Texas State’s 56-54 victory in Saturday’s season opener at Peden Stadium.
“I could have at least thrown it up to give someone a chance in the end zone,” Windham lamented after the loss. “For the game to end like that with the ball in my hands, it leaves a terrible taste in my mouth. I feel like I let my team down.”
Ohio (0-1) and Texas State (1-0), who share the Bobcat name, swapped the lead nine times from the start of the fourth quarter until the end of the third overtime.
