The Blue Devils, who demolished the Pirates last year, were tied at 28-28 with seconds on the clock.
Then came the big defensive play from the Big Red. BHS tackled Bryce Orians for a 3-yard loss as the Blue Devils were in a punt formation. The big play came with 30 ticks remaining in the game.
With only 6 seconds on the Harmon Field clock, the Pirates' Christian Koch booted a 33-yard field goal.
