Akron went up 21-14 on the first play of overtime when quarterback Ben Finley rolled right and appeared ready to tuck and run, but he pulled up and threw it to Charles Kellom who ran it in for the go-ahead score.

Toledo's Dylan Cunanan missed a 29-yard field attempt as time expired at the end of regulation for the chance to win it. Cunanan earlier missed from 45 and 26 yards.
