Duke's Alonzo Saxton tackles Miami's Mark Walton during the eight-lateral kickoff return that Corn Elder returned for a touchdown on Saturday, October 31. The improbable -- and controversial -- score came on the last play of the game and lifted Miami to a 30-27 victory. The next day, the Atlantic Coast Conference suspended the officials involved, <a target="_blank" target="_blank">citing a "series of errors"</a> on the deciding play. One of the errors, according to the ACC, was that Walton was down before he lateraled the ball to teammate Jaquan Johnson.
