Ending of the Michigan game
Have you ever seen anything like it? What compares?
Re: Ending of the Michigan game
The only thing I've seen that I would compare to it would be the ending of the Auburn/Alabama game a few years back.
How did a coach not make sure the kicker knew that on a bad snap/bobbled snap/dropped snap just catch the ball and go to the ground? The worst case scenario would be a couple seconds and a 50+ yard field goal attempt or Hail Mary.
I think moments like that is what has always separated college and pro sports for me. There is something about amature sports that leads to moments that just don't seem to happen with professional athletes that have borderline perfected their craft.
Credit to Michigan State. They knew they had 1 final attempt to make a play, and they made a play.

The end of the Auburn/Alabama or Cal/Stanford is
the only ones that come to mind. I honestly feel for the UM punter. To borrow a line from Verne Lundquist, "he's got to be the sickest man in America".

"Miracle in the Meadowlands", late 70's, take a knee and Giants win. Fumbled handoff, Herm Edwards scoops and scores,...Eagles win. Should have never happened.

To add to the big game hype this week. Penns Manor vs Ligonier the last time they played at ligonier. PMs snapping a play with 1 second on the clock went from its over to what we won.

Re: Ending of the Michigan game
Music City Miracle was pretty ridiculous as well....I'm not a Bill nor Titan fan but I still think it was a forward lateral to start the whole thing.
