Tulane went deep into its playbook to shock Houston on Thursday.

With only 18 seconds left in a game that was tied 31-31, the Green Wave faked a kneel down while deep in their own territory, getting the first down with an 18-yard run.

But the craziness wasn't over yet.

On the very next play, quarterback Justin McMillan hit receiver Jalen McCleskey, who spun away from three Cougars defenders to score the game-winning touchdown.
