It has been a wild weekend of college football. No. 6 Texas A&M lost to Appalachian State. No. 8 Notre Dame lost to Marshall. No. 1 Alabama barely survived a scare at Texas.
But, perhaps the most thrilling game of the week took place in Bowling Green, Ohio, where visiting Eastern Kentucky beat the Falcons in 7 overtimes.
As you can see below, the Colonels converted a 2-point conversion in the seventh overtime period to pull off the 59-57 victory:

The score could have been higher, but the NCAA recently changed overtime rules so teams alternate 2-point conversion tries starting with the third overtime.
Still, this game between Bowling Green and EKU provided plenty of excitement and drama even with the new rules!
