The United Football League has some unique rules in an effort to make spring football more interesting. One of the more peculiar ones came into play Friday and gave the Orlando Storm a 29-27 over over the Louisville Kings in overtime.

The teams played to a 27-27 tie in regulation. According to the UFL rulebook, that sets up a best-of-three series of plays from the 5-yard line for each team. Neither team scored in the "conversions," going 0-for-6.

However, Louisville was flagged for pass interference on one. Orlando was unable to push the ball in from the 1-yard line after the penalty.

Here is where things get bizarro. After Louisville failed -- again -- Orlando attempted a pass to former Denver Bronco second-round pick K.J. Hamler in the end zone. The Kings defender interfered with Hamler.

Call it not-so sudden death. Orlando coach Anthony Becht didn't realize it until he was told that because it was the second live-ball flag on Louisville in overtime, the conversion was good, giving the Storm two points and the win.

Yes, a penalty on an incomplete pass resulted in a successful two-point conversion and determined the outcome of a game.
