2) Buffalo loses 40-48 in 3 OT in a weather-delayed game at Bowling
Green.

Too bad for Buffalo and Turner Gill.  It got exciting when BG matched
Buffalo's missed PAT kick in the 2nd OT.  In the 3rd OT Buffalo advanced
a fumble for what might have been a TD but the whistle blew because you
cannot advance a fumble on 4th down.  Despite what a poster on
Huskerpedia is claiming, this is *not* a rule because of the
fumblerooskie, which has nothing to do at all with 4th down.  Instead
the rule came about when the Oakland Raiders kept a ball alive by
fumbling, kicking, and finally falling on the ball in the end zone.
