If you attempt a fieldgoal and miss, but it goes out of the endzone, you get a point. Buffalo would've tied SB XXV if we had that rule... Of course, the goal posts aren't at the back of the endzone in the CFL.

Is that a canadian thing? Doesn't make sense calling it "rouge," since that means "red." Red point? Rogue point, stealing a point from a field goal, seems to make more sense. Crazy CFL.
