The Chanticleers looked at the scoreboard, 35-34 and figured they'd go for the win.
And the win they would get. Two plays later. Yes, two.
Troy held strong on the ensuing two-point conversion attempt by Coastal Carolina, forcing an incomplete pass and assuming they were going to go home with a last second victory on the road.
