It's January 15, 2011. At 4:30 p.m the Pittsburgh Steelers faced off with the Baltimore Ravens. Both teams showed up wearing their colors proud ready for a game. Fans filled the stands hoping to see their team win. Both teams knew good and well after this game someone was going home and neither team hoped it was them.

Shaun Suisham kicked a field goal and earned the extra point. Pitt leads 7-0. 5 minutes later with 1:20 left on the clock Ray Rice went in the endzone with a 14 yd run for a Ravens' touchdown. Now Baltimore decides to have Billy Cundiff kick for the extra point, which ended in success as it went through the uprights. The game is now tied 7-7. At 0:53 left the Ravens score again off a mishap fumble return by Cory Redding, toughdown Baltimore. Once again Cundiff kicks a field goal between the uprights and Baltimore leads 14-7 in the first quarter.
Now it's time for the second quarter. At 5:43 on the clock Joe Flacco threw in a 4 yd pass to Todd Heap for another Baltimore touchdown. Once again Cundiff kicks a field goal between the uprights and Baltimore leads 21-7 going into half-time.
We're back again in the second half and things started to take a turn on Baltimore in the Steelers' favor.

The score is now 30-24 and Suisham kicks yet another fiekd goal between the uprights making the score 31-24. The fans of the Steelers were going crazy by this point. Baltimore had thrown 2 incomplete passes, then Flacco was sacked taking the ball back to 3rd and 18 where he threw yet another incomplete pass. With the Steelers' next possesion, Roethlisberger took a knee to end the game.
The final score of the game ended as 31-24 with a Pittsburgh Steelers victory. Steelers fans were going crazy, theire team was one step closer to the Super Bowl. Both teams played a good game. I know some friends and I sure hope Pittsburgh goes all the way and wins the Super Bowl for their 7th Super Bowl title. But hey, that's just our opinion.
