Redlands trailed Claremont-Mudd-Scripps 21-3 and saw its hopes of staying in the SCIAC race and perhaps getting an at-large bid to the playoffs fading. But the Bulldogs put together a second-half comeback, culminating in this play which avoided the need for overtime altogether.

• Undermanned Oberlin, dressing around 40 players, pulled out all the stops to try to rally against Wabash. Down by nine with 7:03 left, the Yeomen hit on a two-point conversion to make it a one-score game. Watch
• This looks like a standard interception, except it's a Guilford fake punt gone wrong. Bridgewater's Tyler Staton is there to pick it off and take it back for six. Watch
