With the game on the line Air Force drove down the field in their typical offensive fashion and scored a touchdown on a 14 play drive. The drama came when Air Force had to go for two to tie the game, and at first it was ruled a score, but the play went to the booth and play was over turned. Asher's Clark knee was down just inside the one which put Air Force down two.

Had Air Force kicked the extra point earlier in the game going for two would have been a mute point, but instead they needed the two point conversion.
