Benton Panthers Pull Off Historic Upset | Little Rock News

Benton Panthers pulled off a jaw-dropping comeback, erasing a 28-point deficit to stun top-ranked Bryant Hornets in the Salt Bowl — their first victory over the powerhouse in 21 years. Down 42-14 with under four minutes left in the third, an interception sparked a furious rally. They scored on their next four possessions, capped by a clutch two-point conversion — dubbed the “Philly Special” — sealing the win with zero seconds left. This shocker ends Bryant’s 26-game winning streak and marks Benton’s first Salt Bowl title since 2005. Proof: in rivalry games, no lead is safe.
