Pittsburgh Earns Stunning Win Vs. No. 2 Clemson, Shakes Up Playoff Race
The College Football Playoff race just got very interesting.
The No. 2 Clemson Tigers suffered a shocking 43-42 home loss to unranked Pittsburgh on Saturday, which means there likely will be a new top four when the latest rankings are unveiled this week.
So how did the Panthers pull off the huge upset?
Because of a kicker named Chris Blewitt, who did the opposite of his name by making an impressive 48-yard field goal with only six seconds remaining.

The kick must have been extra special for Blewitt, too, after he missed an extra-point attempt earlier in the game.
