And in the third quarter, the Saints started the second half with an on-side kick, which they recovered, to turn into a touchdown drive. Saints once again dominating the quarter, but a little closer, as the Saints get three more points on the board after the touchdown, to a Colt's 7. The touchdown belonged to rookie Pierre Garcon. And of course, the kick belonging to Garrett Hartley, being the first Super Bowl kicker with three field goals over 40 yards.

On the colts side, the touchdown belonged to a run from Joseph Adai.

the quarter once again ended in favor of Colts, 17-16.
