no, not yesterday


it was the away game at Indiana in the 2015 season.....RU trailed by 19 points 52-33, not the 18 as yesterday was.....first play of the 4th quarter, the punt snap by Indiana from the RU 47 yard line, went over the kickers head, a scramble ensued
and Kimoko Toure picked it up and ran it in for a td..

this cut the deficit to 13 with the two pt conversion that followed, failing

the actual comeback started the possession before, when RU had gotten a td, trailing by 25

still, as the punt play unfolded yesterday, my mind immediately flashed back to that Indiana game......RU tied the score late, 52-52, missed an extra pt that would have given them the lead, yet was
able to hit a last play field goal for a 55-52 win

one thing about the Flood era, he did get a couple of wins where RU trailed substantially, another being an away Maryland game.....
