Miami (Oh) 31-34 Buffalo — the night Buffalo scored the last 18 points

18 unanswered points. Down 30-16 in the fourth quarter, Buffalo posted the final 18 points of the night and beat Miami (Oh) 34-31 after overtime — an NCAA Division FBS finish decided across a fourth quarter and extra period played out at 18-7. Miami (Oh) shaped the night for three quarters; Buffalo finished it.

Oliver Hautanen's opening field goal put Buffalo ahead 0-3, but the Red Hawks did most of the early dictating: Braylon Isom answered in the first quarter, Rodney Nelson moved the margin in the second, Jason Wright and Kellan McLaughlin traded scores, and Miami (Oh) went in 17-10 at the break. Mychal Yharbrough stretched it again in the third, before Chance Morrow's first touchdown — with no extra point attached — set the frame at 24-16.

Scoop Smith's fourth-quarter touchdown stretched it to 30-16, and Miami (Oh) never scored again. Chance Morrow answered, added the two-point conversion himself, and Jason Wright's second score of the night pulled Buffalo within a point at 31-30. Overtime decided the rest: the home side's turn produced nothing, and Hautanen — author of the game's first points — delivered its last, a field goal for 31-34.

Chance Morrow was the comeback in one name: two touchdowns, the two-point conversion he added himself, 14 points in all. His third-quarter score kept Buffalo in touch; his fourth-quarter strike opened the closing run. Oliver Hautanen bookended the night, from the opening kick to the winner in the extra period.

Miami (Oh) held a 14-point lead deep in the fourth quarter. Buffalo held the final kick — and the final kick is the one that counts.
