Trailing by seven yards in 11 plays, with less than three minutes left, the Orange drove 75 yards to tie the game, with Jackson Meeks catching a 6-yard TD pass with 23 seconds left.

The Rebels elected to take a knee on their first play of the final round of regulation, sending UNLV to its first overtime game since 2021, a triple-overtime loss to Eastern Washington.
