Started in offence, and opponent repeatedly lets me set up players to be pushed out of bounds - I pushed out 5? on the drive for 1KO. On the way, I get 5 double Skulls, and he gets a lucky one dice POW on my ball carrier to knock the ball free and I get another double skulls (6th one?) and don't get a TD.
Second half, I steal the ball and score on him after he again lets me push someone out and I take a 1-0 lead.
With 4 turns left for him to score, he rushes deep with the ball. I can blitz him with 2 dice, just need 4 GFI, but I rack up yet another Double Skulls on my turn so I have no RR left and I don't reach him.
With 2 turns left to score, I got to pick up the ball in my backfield and roll snakes. Game over.
A very unsatisfying game in that I had the advantage on the pitch for most of the game due to exploiting his player positioning, only to be thwarted by stupid dice rolls in the first half denying me the TD (though I did stall) and then also on my T15 denying me the chance to score the winning TD, oh, I had another surf play on my final drive too, just needed a single 3+ dodge with dodge reroll and I was going to surf another player into the crowd and then advance downfield with a second scorer, but the Snakes would have been a failed dodge for my Witch or my Lineman who was going to run deep across a player's TZ so that was fate. ”
