Jeremy Ito's second field goal attempt of the day ended in one of the most bizzare plays of the year -- with an illegal forward pass penalty against USF after the Bulls blocked the kick and recovered it.

His third attempt -- from 40 yards out -- was good, and the Knights are down by four at the half.

If the Knights lose, they'll have to look back at the fumbled punt by Brown, because right now, that's the difference in the game.

They've managed to be right in the game despite a bad first half from Mike Teel, largely because the defense -- a few plays not withstanding -- has been better than the score indicates, and because Ray Rice has been very, very good.

Hang onto your hats. I've got a feeling this one is going to go right down to the wire.
