Pause timer glitch?

I'm in my super bowl of the All Madden event, my opponent fumbles and I return for a touchdown and he immediately pauses the game. I've now been stuck in the pause menu up 6-0 for the last hour and there appears to be no timer for him to resume the game. I'm assuming i'm just screwed here? Nice one EA, I don't want to give them the satisfaction of conceding when I could've gotten Isaac Bruce if the game weren't so busted. So I'm here just waiting, will probably end up taking the L after awhile. Thanks.
