How do you get a 7-2 score in an overtime game?

Lets see here it was 0 to 0 at the end of regulation. Team A scored a safety then Team B scored a safety. Second overtime Team A scored another safety oh heck Mike I have no clue?????? where did this happen?

It is possible. The teams could start overtime tied 2-2. The first team could kick a field goal on their first possession, then get a safety on defense, making the final score 7-2.

Or start 0-0 and get a TD plus the safety.  question is, how would you get a safety when they start in the redzone???  it would be hard to fumble it that far back.

I am sorry folks, I know that mathematically it is possible to get a safety in an overtime, but logistically, it's virtually impossible. Each team starts at the opponents 25, they would have to lose 75 yards, and that is highly impossible.

I did some checking and Grad is right, the game in question never went to overtime.

Joey, this scenario would not happen. After Team A got the initial safety, the game would be over.

Not so virtually impossible, if I remember the Lumberton game this year AAW, Silsbee lost 60 in one series due to penalties and sacks (or JJ running for his life the wrong direction)  ;D ;D

2-2 end of regulation.

First team in OT scores a field goal on its possession. 5-2.

Second team in OT has a major, major melt down and incurs a safety on its possession. 7-2 Final.

Possible, not probable.

Although it was an interesting exercise...it never happened.  I, for reasons that are now are completely unknown to me, typed in the Rockdale/Marlin score in the playoff capsule for the Rockdale/Coldspring game as 7-2 (OT).  Well, the game never went into overtime. 

I knew I should have taken a nap before I created that capsule!

I have seen a play where a team incurred a safety from inside the opposing red zone. Team A fumbled the ball around Team B's 10 yard line. Team B picked up the fumble and returned it for an apparent touchdown. Right before the player crossed the goal line, a player from Team A stripped the ball. The same player from Team A then picked up the fumble and commenced running the ball back. In trying to avoid a tackle, he crossed back into his own end zone and was later tackled in the end zone. Safety. It can happen.

Yeah even thought said game didn't go to OT, it is possible.

Team A scores TD with EP on first possession. Team B gets ball, QB throws INT, DB catches it around the 5, starts to return it instead of taking knee, then figures out game is over and throws ball out of back of end zone, or runs into end zone, or whatever.
Unlikely, but could happen.

Ok, here's how it could happen.  Tied 2-2 at the end of regulation Team A kicks a field goal making it 5-2.  Then Team B has a wacky play where they throw an interception, the DB runs down to the goal line, gets hit from behind and fumbles, Team B player picks the ball up in their own end zone and tries to run it out but gets tackled.  Final score 7-2.

Your scenario has already been covered.

    • Where were the 8 Omaha teams in D1's preseason top 25 poll... 2. Florida 8. A&M 9. Tennessee 13. N.C.State 14. Virginia 15. North Carolina Kentucky - unranked Florida State - unranked
    • That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.
    • I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.
    • But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling. 
    • Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
