Re: FOOTBALL: Game #3: Rhode Island vs. Albany (9/14/13)

Rhody scores a TD on first OT possession!

....misses extra point. Ugh. Hope that doesn't come back to haunt them.

Re: FOOTBALL: Game #3: Rhode Island vs. Albany (9/14/13)

Rhody gives up a 45yd pass to get Albany down to the 10yd line with about that many seconds left in regulation to kick a game winning FG.

Or was it as time expired when he was tackled short of scoring? Gametracker shows 13 tie at end of regulation.

No, they do indeed come down. They're just not extended to make space for basketball media. That side of the Ryan Center is different from the East side when you compare against sections 205/206.

One could also argue that as we start winning more games starting this year, we want to have the media cover the team as much as possible to capitalize on the on-court success.
