Rashard Mendenhall pounded the ball in on the left side to go back on top 17-13.

That was followed by a 7 play drive that went 80 yards and ended on a pass from Big Ben to Hines Ward for an 11 yard TD,Steelers go up 24-20. Then to put the nail in the coffin the Raiders went 88 yards on 10 plays in the game's last 2 minutes and on that drive Louis Murphy and Bruce Gradkowski looked like Kenny Stabler and Fred Biletnikoff.

A Roethlisberger pass as time expired fell incomplete and the Raiders pulled another game out the magic hat joining the Eagles and Bengals.Here are some quick notes from this game: 3rd Times A Charm: This was Bruce Gradkowski's 3rd career start at Pittsburgh and the first 2 were justawful. All week there have been stories about his terrible past against the terrible towel but this time Bruce would not go down to the Steelers. He completed 20 of 33 for 308 yards and 3TDs with no turnovers, he had the highest fantasy value of all QBs in the early games. Murphy Redeems Himself: Murphy has been dropping a lot of passes lately and today he had no catches going into the 4th quarter, then he had 4 catches for 128 yards and 2 TD's plus a great "Sea of Hands" style catch on the last drive before he caught the winning TD. The First is The Hardest: Chaz Schilens caught his first TD of the year, it's been a long time coming since his injury kept him out half the season. O-Line Steps Up: The Raiders kept the Steelers 2 sack defense off Gradkowski until the second half 0 sacks in the first half. McFadden had 9 for 25 and Gradkowski had 2 nice runs only to be called back by penalties on the other side of the field. Seymour No Factor: Seymour's name was never called except for an illegal use of hands penalty. DHB Inactive, Higgins Shines: With Heyward-Bey sidelined from a minor injury, Johnie Lee made his first start all year and he had 4 catches for 63 yards.

That is half of what DHB has done all year. Cable May Have Saved Job: Al Davis hates many people, but none more than the Steelers. On the the Raiders 1976 Super Bowl rings Al Davis put 24-7 (the score of the AFC championship game vs the Steelers) on the side of the ring. This will give Tom Cable some help in stating his case to stay on board for next year.Depending on how the Raiders finish the season, 8-8or 7-9 could get Cable some consideration to keep his job and a win over Pittsburgh could be the determining factor.. Alabama came into this game ranked number 2 in the country. Alabama has dodged threats to losing all season, they blocked a field goal against Tennessee as time expired to win the game, and they came back from a 1pt deficit in the 4th quarter to beat Auburn in the Iron Bowl. Florida came into this game ranked number 1 in the country. Tim Tebow came into this game as a Heisman favorite and has shown it this season with this numbers; he has thrown for 2166yds, 17Tds and only 4 Ints. This game was huge for both teams; for Alabama (12-0) if they win they clinch a berth in the National Championship game and for Florida (12-0) if they win they also clinch a berth in the National Championship game.1st Quarter:Alabama came out and attacked Florida from the start of the game; Greg McElroy (Alabama quarterback) started the game out hot by throwing a 18yd pass to Julio James on his 1st pass of the game.

Alabama would kick a 48yd field goal and take a 3pt lead over Florida. Alabama would score again on their next possession; Greg McElroy would drive the Tide down the field making some key throws, including a 19yd pass to Colin Peek and a 14 yd pass to Marquis Maze. McElroy led them down the field all the way to the Florida 7 yd line, then Mark Ingram would finish the drive with a 7yd TD run This TD would only be the beginning for Alabama Alabama would miss the extra point though. Florida would get on the scoreboard late in the 1st quarter with a 48yd field goal by Caleb Sturgis Alabama would lead the Gators by 6. 2nd Quarter: Alabama would extend their lead early in the 2nd quarter when Leigh Tiffin kicked a 34yd field goal.
