What is the only way that a team can end a game having just scored one point..e.g. Team A 14, Team B 1?

I think this only applies to college..

Blocking an extra point and running it back? Or would that be 14,2?

Edit: Or maybe, if the opposing team scores, then "accidentally" kicks the extra-point through the wrong uprights?

It would be 14-2 in your first case, and case #2, I think that would just be a missed kick.

I looked it up on Wikipedia (not going to spoil it). Knew it had something to do with that type of scenario (not the last part).

Just read the Wiki article listed above.... in there it lists one scenario that they claim has never happened... and most likely never will happen...

I say... just watch this weekend's UM-ND game... it's bound to happen to one of them. :p LOL
