I didnt jump back far enough to pull it, Perkins continued, breaking down that final play, in overtime, UVA trailing 34-31, but a touchdown away from winning on what theyd call a walk-off in baseball. I kind of stayed on the running backs track. When I jumped back and tried to pull it, I was too close to the running back, so I hit him, while I was trying to pull and throw. The ball came out, and then I tried to reach for it, and I got hit, and they got it, and that was all she wrote. Perkins h stanley mug ung his head.

Too close to call.The networks fell all over themselves to declare George W. Bush the winner in the 2000 presidential race when that one was anything but certain.
