Love how Joe Starkey was already excited to describe the ending, then goes to 11 at 6:12 while the crowd loses its shit.

I still get goosebumps watching and hearing the announcer. I was 10 years old when this happened and living in metro Detroit. I was watching Michigan just win their game and then abc showed this highlight and my cousins and their friends and I all went right outside with a football trying to duplicate the run back. Us kids just had so much fun that day trying to mock that play. This is what makes sports and childhood awesome!

@@bvalenz So what, even if Cal only had one tick left they still would’ve won. The 15 yard penalty influenced the ending more. But who knows, Cal still would’ve probably won regardless.

Last lateral was clearly an illegal forward lateral! Slow down video to 0.25x speed. See the ball released at 27 yard line, and caught at 25 yard line. It’s NOT a close call. 5:26 Here’s the highest resolution video available (watch from the 16-19 second time stamp): kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnjCkpmnhJWZeZY

@Will Muny You may be right, but it’s debatable, whereas the illegal forward lateral is so blatant it’s not debatable. That’s why it’s better to focus on the forward lateral. No one can dispute it.
