Opposing team blocked the ensuing punt and their kicker (who missed a PAT earlier in the game and thought he lost the game for his team) kicked a 44 yard field goal to win. Feel so bad for that kid to get the penalty in that situation . Didn’t directly lead to the loss, but certainly gave them the opportunity to the block and win. Crazy ending.
