After Nate Reynolds scored his second touchdown of the night to give the Spartans a 14-0 lead late in the third quarter, the Wildcats responded in a big way.

On their first play from scrimmage after the touchdown, Jake Spalik found Troy Robinson behind the defense for a 68-yard touchdown.

Then in the fourth quarter, the Wildcats marched 80 yards on 10 plays capped off by Josh Halladay's 13-yard touchdown run to make it 14-12.

Palmer then caught a tipped pass for the two-point conversion to tie the game and send it to overtime.
