What happened

Cincinnati needed overtime and 79 combined points to outlast Tennessee 43-36. The game swung hardest on D.Lawrence, whose third-quarter strip-sack of C.Ward had fans tearfully relitigating the trade at their desks. C.Brown's fourth-quarter fumble and W.Robinson's touchdown nearly gave it away before J.Burrow found T.Higgins for an 18-yard score with 1:20 left, and the overtime finally ended on a C.Ward incompletion. A win counts, but a defense that surrenders 36 to Tennessee won't survive many more shootouts.
