No problem.

One of those stars was K.J. Hill.
Dwayne Haskins connected with Hill on a screen pass and Hill followed his blocks to the end zone for a 24-yard touchdown to take a 27-26 lead with less than two minutes left.

What an incredible drive in a hostile environment. Talk about poise.

What a crazy finish in Happy Valley.
