Steelers win Superbowl XLIII 27-23
Posted By RichC on February 1, 2009
Superbowl XLIII (43) has turned out to be quite the exciting game as the Arizona Cardinals came back in the forth quarter to take the lead. (23-20) Pittsburgh used the last 2 minutes to mount a last stand and marched up the field just hoping to make it into field goal range in order to tie the game. A wild completion to Santonio Holmes (Ohio State) ends up making it to a 1st and goal situation with only 49 seconds. Then with 30 seconds to go, a Pittsburgh’s QB Ben Roethlisberger (’04 MiamiU of Ohio — my alma mater) made a terrific corner of the endzone TD pass to Holmes again and the extra point to bring the final score 27-23.
Well done gridiron superstars — can’t ask for much more from a Superbowl!
