In a stunning turn of events during their UFL home opener, the Memphis Showboats lost to the San Antonio Brahmas despite having a 19-8 lead with less than a minute left in the game. The Brahmas managed to score, successfully convert a 4th down onside kick to regain possession, and then scored again with just 16 seconds left on the clock inside the Memphis 20, ultimately winning the game 19-14. This remarkable comeback was highlighted by the UFL's unique fourth-quarter rules, which played a pivotal role in the Brahmas' victory under the leadership of Wade Phillips. The game's dramatic finish, with two touchdowns scored by the Brahmas in the final 48 seconds, has been described as unprecedented and a game-changer for the league.

Stunner. The Showboats, who dominated the first 59 minutes of the game, give up two touchdowns in the final 48 seconds and lose their UFL home opener to the San Antonio Brahmas. The Brahmas scored, converted the 4th and 12 onside kick, then scored again with 3 seconds left.
Showboats had a 19-8 lead with less than a minute left, but the Brahmas scored and then converted the 4th down onside kick play to get the ball back. UFL rules, kinda cool. Now the Brahmas have it with 16 seconds left inside the Memphis 20, down 19-14.
