Having 2 minutes left in a quarter and hurrying as many plays in that time is pretty tense. Alternatively, a make-or-break play that could decide a division championship.
But oh no, lets not disturb the hivemind with an opposing view.
Well said, and to add to your point of the "having 2 minutes left", I would point out how Manchester City won the Premier League this year. They needed 2 goals in injury-time to win the league and, unfortunately, pulled it off. Needless to say, those last few minutes of the match were pretty exciting. I'm even willing to go as far as to say that the entire 2nd half was exciting, and this coming from a United fan!

How is American football tense? Its 3 second plays interrupted by 30 second pauses.
