University of Massachusetts got caught in a high-scoring affair with Vanderbilt, and they appeared to be primed for their first win of the season after holding a 31-20 lead at the end of the third quarter.
However, the Commodores responded with 14 unanswered points to take a 34-31 lead with just over a minute remaining. The Minutemen had one last chance to score, and they appeared to be headed to overtime since they just needed a 22-yard field goal.
However, Minutemen kicker Blake Lucas missed the chip shot wide left to give the Commodores their first win of the season.
Here is a video of this shocking conclusion from ESPNU’s official Twitter account.
