Running down the score

The opposite of running up the score. A team that has no chance of winning scores as the game comes to a close.

In sports where the winner's margin of victory matter, it is important for the losing team to erase as much of the scoring deficit as possible.
Running down the score was necessary for NC State against Villanova if they wanted to stay as a top 25 college basketball team in next week's poll.

Running on fumes

Verb phrase.
At the end of one's resources or personal energy.

This comes from the condition of a car when it's gas gauge reads "E" or "Empty." In a car on empty, you don't know how much fuel you have left, so you assume your fuel is so low that it has evaporated into fumes.
After that Marathon, I'm so exhausted that I'm running on fumes.

My car's fuel gauge is reading "E"; I'm running on fumes, so I might not make it to the next gas station.
