Controversy

Louisville was tied 27-27 with Southern Miss with under two minutes to go with the 1999 Conference USA title on the line. Facing fourth and 5 at the Louisville 37, Southern Miss went into punt formation. Shawn Mills was leaving the field after getting into a heated discussion with head coach Jeff Bower. The punter, Jamie Purser, threw a 27 yard pass to Mills which led to a Brett Hanna field goal attempt that won the game. Officials later admitted that they missed penalties for Southern Miss not having enough players on the line of scrimmage, and Mills' shoulders not being parallel to the line. Jeff Bower is an American Football coach at The University of Southern Mississippi. ...
