Yards to Glory
29. Snow Cats
Cincinnati wins Big East title on late-game TDDec. 5, 2009: On a snowy day at Heinz Field with the Big East title on the line, Pittsburgh raced out to a 31-10 first-half lead. But defending league champ Cincinnati kept roaring back in a thrilling shootout. After Dion Lewis scored with 1:36 left to put Pitt ahead 44-38, the Bearcats quickly marched down to the Panthers' 29-yard line. For some reason, Pittsburgh decided to blitz and leave Armon Binns in one-on-one coverage down the sideline. Quarterback Tony Pike recognized that right away and lofted a perfect touchdown pass into the corner of the end zone for a 45-44 win and second straight BCS trip for Cincinnati.
