'I've never seen that in my life. That's crazy. … The football gods were definitely with us this week.' Full story (along with video) on the sugarskullsfb thrilling win on Saturday thanks to a game-winning blocked PAT returned back for two points.

In a 42-41 thriller at Tucson Arena, the Duke City Gladiators scored the go-ahead touchdown to take a one-point lead, setting up for another fourth-quarter meltdown by Tucson's IFL club.

"We won," said Sugar Skulls head coach Dixie Wooten after sighing with relief."That's all you can say about that one: We won. It was crazy, but we came out winners on that one. ... That was huge. That was effort. He was getting grabbed on, tackled and everything. What he did was break that tackle, hit the sideline and nobody was going to catch him."

Tucson wide receiver Carrington Thompson had a chance to an eight-point lead, but fumbled the ball on the goal line and Duke City recovered. The Sugar Skulls defense forced a three-and-out, but the Gladiators nailed a 53-yard field goal to move ahead 16-14. This time, Tucson attempted the onside kick. Kicker Logan Justus tapped the ball with his foot, allowed the ball to dribble before Benjamin Jones dove on it to give the Sugar Skulls another possession.

"Just got to play defense. At the end of the day, when there's time on the clock in this crazy game. ... I've been a part of games where we were down by 21 points and we end up winning. ... As long as there's time on the clock, we got a chance," Wooten said.
