I’d say in college a 57 yard kick has a 30-40% chance of going through. A proven kicker who’s done it before can make it 60% of the time

[@ghettostreamlabs5724]

You didn't touch on it, which is completely understandable, but Rod Bramblett is the voice calling the game in the last clip. He was Auburn's radio announcer for many years starting with baseball and coming over to football. He was literally "The Voice of the Auburn Tigers". In 2019, he and his wife were tragically killed in a wreck while sitting at a red light at a busy, and well known intersection in Auburn, Alabama. For us Auburn alumni and fans, this makes the kick-six call even more special. RIP Rod & Paula Bramblett

I grew up with Rod thru high school and Auburn. He was very funny, smart and kind as well as talented. I will never forget his incredible, hilarious Phil Donahue impression in a high school skit. We lost more than just a great announcer when he and Paula were killed. I would like to suggest Jeanne Robertson's 'Got a Second' and 'Would You Hug a Bama Fan' for another, different kind of Auburn storyteller.

@@richrichie3153 you'll get no argument from me. Although as soon as that strip fumble happened, I knew in my gut we would win.

[@richrichie3153]

@birch5757 The strip fumble right before halftime by Nick Fairley is what I am assuming you mean. I didn't know Auburn would win because I didn't think the refs would allow Auburn to win. They had already thrown some bullcrap flags on Auburn... especially the personal foul on Fairley for celebrating a play in a way that is done all the time, after he got his first sack I think.

[@richrichie3153]

I will always have a soft spot for the 2005 game against Uga too. That one will always be a fav. The way it was 4th and long and Brandon Cox hit Devin Aromashodu was just special. And the heads up play by my favorite Auburn receiver of all time, Courtney Taylor, to recover the fumble in the end zone.

[@chrisb.8758]

The chances of him making the kick weren’t good, but the reason for attempting it is that it still gave them a better chance than a 40+ yard Hail Mary. And what *actually* happened was extremely unlikely so it really didn’t factor into the decision at all (just like the slim chances of a pick six wouldn’t factor into the decision to throw a Hail Mary)

[@dawsondudark]

It’s the chance you have to take. Even with a small risk factor the risk is still there.

[@jaegybomb]

Best data I could find looks like around a 10% chance from 57 yards in college.

[@sskywarpe]

Thank you for pointing out the possibility of a pick six. People question the kick because of what happened, but only because of happened. The possibility of a fumble, interception, or worst of all- qb injury because of how long he has to sit back- is just too much to risk. Normally the kick either makes it, or it's overtime. The kick was a smart call... the coverage was not.

[@ethanheard9208]

Another part of the problem was that Saban did NOT want to go into overtime. They were ahead before the half and auburn was coming back. Auburn had all of the momentum and Alabama was getting tired

[@BreakingNVain]

I feel like they should have just gone ahead and thrown a Hail Mary to the corner of the end zone

[@davidgoodman4208]

Heh. Pro-level kickers have gotten relatively better at kicks over 50. College kickers are notoriously unreliable, and (with few exceptions) hitting a 57 yarder would be extremely unlikely for most. Alabama only attempted the kick because time was going to run out.

[@G.0.]

Yea. Basically 57 yard attempts in college are pretty rare, and they're rare because it's very hard, in many cases impossible, for a lot of college kickers. I don't know the numbers, but that would be my guess.

[@jeffspain3613]

How? Auburn essentially had FSU's playbook. Their QB coach Damian Craig was at FSU the year before and he was relaying Jimbo's hand signals to the defense. That's the only way they were able to stop FSU's offense for a little while. That's why FSU started blocking Auburn's vision with towels from the sidelines. As soon as they did, FSU owned Auburn. No way can you say, with a straight face, that Auburn deserved to win the title.

[@unseenmal]

@@jeffspain3613 I did not know that.

[@graciel2313]

Alabama had over 100 yards more in total offense than Auburn, not sure that Auburn "deserved" to win as you put it but they did. They had beaten Georgia on a miracle in an earlier game and it took another miracle for the them to get past Alabama. Their luck ran out against FSU, unfortunately for them. I will say the info from Jeff Spain above is interesting. It took a miracle for Alabama not to win 3 national titles in a row, it is still disappointing even now.

[@thumbthump]

I've watched sports over 50 years from my childhood. This is the most amazing play of all time!! Context for this one is key. Amazing, unbelievable turn of events. AND it's good for a VOL fan to watch these teams beat each other up.

[@adambuckler1398]

What makes this play even crazier is that arguably the bigger miracle happened two weeks before that kept Auburn in contention for the kick-six to matter. The Georgia bulldogs had made a 21 point 4th quarter comeback to take a one-point lead with under a minute to-go. Auburn was backed up inside their own 25 and had a 4th & 18 led by a quarterback who threw less than 10 passes a game... Under pressure, he throws up a desperate heave directly to three Georgia defenders with no Auburn receivers in range to make a play on the ball. The game was over. Until the defenders fought with each other and tipped the ball up. And I guess that infamous Jordan-Hare Voodoo took care of the rest

[@DisjointedEarthling]

The Alabama coach had said in an interview, he did not think he could beat Auburn in Overtime. That’s why I decided to kick a field goal. Personally I am not a college football fan, that statement was power. He put the blame totally on himself and not the players. Nick won my respect when I heard that interview. On a light note, was that the game an Auburn stole Nick’s hat off his Head?

MSU has a lot of magical finishes I think are worth watching. Miracle at the big house is also a great finish to a famous rivalry that ended on a special teams play like the kick 6. The Michigan State Spartans defeated their in state rival Michigan Wolverines while never having a lead before the clock hit 0:00 MSU vs Iowa in the 2015 Big Ten championship, it was a defensive struggle and MSU's final drive took, 13 minutes, 22 plays, 4 4thd down conversions, and a 2nd effort push to cross the goal line. "Little giants" where MSU beat top ranked Notre Dame on a trick play in overtime, scoring a TD instead of a tying FG (which would have lost the game if they didn't convert).

[@jasongorkisch]

As was said, the distance was an issue (especially since he'd missed closer) but the thinking was - if he hit it, they win; if he misses, they just go to overtime. It's better than attempting to throw a pass and having it get intercepted and ran back.

Wow, another recommended video reviewed! Great content as always lads! This game clip gives every sports fan goosebumps, even more so when you know all of the context behind it. As far as kick distance is concerned, I would say anything beyond a 48 yarder is an awesome kick in college football. Also while watching, they will occasionally put a red or green line across the field to give a reference point of where a make-able kick is likely to occur from(this is added in addition to the standard yellow first down and grey line of scrimmage markers). Also in American football unlike rugby you have to remember the goal post is at the back of the end zone instead of the front and the ball must be snapped back about 6 yards so it is usually the yard marker +16 yards (example kick from 41 yard line=57 yard kick).

[@scottramsey7244]

Being an Auburn fan and being there at that game is something that I'll never forget. I was sitting at the other end of the stadium where Davis would return the ball. I can still remember it to this day, I was thinking about getting my phone out for a photo or video, video recording would have been terrible with a flip phone, but it probably would not have been a very good video since the place was going nuts, people were jumping up and down in the stands and it was so loud. Absolutely loved it. After the game we rushed the field and I did take a photo of being on the 50-yard line. I haven't been to another college football game since. I mean, how do you top that.

[@johng482]

I grew up in an Auburn family (though I actually attended Georgia Tech) and I’ve continued to follow Auburn football because of how much it means to the rest of my family. I remember watching that iron bowl. Being a Tech fan, I’m well versed that I never let optimism creep into my football and the whole game, I was waiting for Bama to open up what I knew they could do. It was a pleasant surprise when they had so much trouble with the kicking game and when Auburn kept things so close. Going into the kick, I told my wife that I figured the game was over, either Bama would hit the FG or take the win in OT (I couldn’t imagine Auburn beating both Bama and u(sic)GA (who I despise more than anyone else) in the same season). Watching that play, I was seated up until the returner made his cut at the sideline; I then jumped up and was starting something like “what the heck!” repeatedly. After the play, I was leaving against the wall trying to catch my breath (I’m asthmatic) just waiting for the replay booth to show he stepped out or the refs to manufacture a holding call. I remember sinking back into my seat when the touchdown was official. We had watched the game live, but I had forgotten my parents always DVR’d the game so they could ff through commercials. I called them immediately after the game, my dad answered the phone with “Don’t say a word” and immediately hung up. I had to wait about an hour before they called me back so we could discuss what had happened. Iirc, both of my brothers were at their house watching with them (we lived 9 hours away so were unable to do so). Just an amazing day that almost made up for me having to watch that Athens “school” beat my Yellow Jackets earlier in the day. Almost.

[@91lemlem]

Regarding the reasoning behind the kick, I think Saban possibly weighed up penalty chances. Offside on Auburn during the kick would have given them an extra 5 and an untimed down, making either a 2nd kick or hail mary easier, had the initial one not gone through and they accepted said penalty. The key part of the play was the timeout by Auburn to get Chris Davis back to return it as he was their kick off and punt returner all season, but would not have normally been there on a FG attempt because of how unlikely a short kick is and that a missed kick in most other situations would result in a turnover on downs and better field position for Auburn's O. This literally was a perfect storm.

Auburn took out the the field goal defense team and put in the punt return team. (which to fair is mostly the same players) but they played it like a punt return and not a field goal attempt.

The idea behind the 57 yard kick was simple make it and we win. If we miss were most likely going to overtime. Mathematically the odd's were on Saban's side of those two outcomes with a less than 1% chance most likely of Auburn being able to actually field and return the kick for a TD. Or simply put it was a gamble that ended horribly.

[@mclaugsc]

that game was awesome. They had to come back 14 points against maybe one of the best Alabama teams ever. if they would have won their QB would have won the Heisman. Hell, he threw a 99 yard TD in the first half. It's hard to explain how Huge the Iron Bowl is in Alabama. it's like international football but you live next door to them. I was travelling home that night on I95 listening to the game on my phone. I got to hear the radio call they always play. Damn near wrecked. too bad they lost the National Championship to FSU by 13 seconds... War Damn Eagle!

I remember where I was when this happened. I had watched the other half of Auburn's story, FSU beating rival UF to go undefeated on the way to the National Championship. Afterwards we went out to eat. This game was on. I went to use the bathroom and saw the score, the tie, the clock review... I couldn't believe they didn't want to go for it. Alabama would surely win in OT. And then it happened. Their second miracle of the season which lead them to the Championship against my FSU team. And that same Chris Davis who ran the ball back to get them there couldn't stop Big Kelvin Benjamin in the end zone.

[@JeffMillsObviously]

Someone catching a short field goal is rare enough let alone it being returned for a touchdown to win a game and add to that to win a rivalry game of top 5 ranked teams.

[@philg1182]

Hey lads, I’m an Auburn fan and I still get goose bumps and tears in my eyes watching this. What the video doesn’t discuss is the kicker who attempted the kick was making them from 60 in warm ups 3.5 hours earlier. However, the temp had dropped about 20 degrees F and he was hitting those 60 yarders after about 20 kicks at differing lengths. So he was really warmed up. Now he had to come in cold and try it. I was surprised he hit it 56 yards to be honest. Also not mentioned was Auburn subbed more than just Chris Davis. They replaced the team on the field with the punt return team. So when Davis starts right the entire return team knew he was going to go left and they were able to setup the blocks differently. If you can find the original CBS call, Gary Danielson discusses that and a few other things, but hearing Rod Bramblett from Auburn radio doing the call is even more magical. Thanks again and War Eagle!

The 2013 national championship game is very underrated. Recommend watching it soon

[@TheCheffer76]

As your loyal viewer and a born and raised Bama fan, I’m going to play this and thumbs up but I am going to walk my dog while it plays. This hurts so bad.

[@DNReacts]

Thank you 🙏 Really appreciate that! We’ve got a poll on Discord at the moment which has a couple of Bama games included. Hopefully at least one of them has a better outcome 🤞

[@TheCheffer76]

@@DNReacts none is worse than this. This is my version of a stoppage time goal moments before the whistle. This just…when Saban sent the kicker out everyone in my family lost their minds. He is the greatest coach behind the Bear but Christ on a cracker what was he thinking.

[@franciscomascarenas4060]

Watched the game live on tv. “Oh my God” was all I could say.

[@margaretstutts4362]

I am an Auburn alumnus. Thank you for watching and reacting to this. The Iron Bowl is the annual game between the Auburn Tigers and University of Alabama Crimson Tide. I have been a Tiger my whole life. My family is AU. Half of my cousins are Bama and half AU. We live, work and play together all year. The the Iron Bowl comes. One day a year, families all over the state are divided. That’s Thanksgiving weekend too. The Iron Bowl is always the Saturday after thanksgiving. 57 yarders are tough. Our kicker usually can hit it 40+ yards away. But 50+ is hard. Daniel Carson is in the NFL and played at AU. We called him legatron. We all said Need a second Saban? It was meme gold!!

As a alabama fan we are cursed with our kickers lot of alabama fans will agree with this statement

One of the Greatest Plays in Sports history.

[@jennymckinney7175]

Omg guys seeing you do this is fun. I was there. My son was a back up place kicker for AU. He was on the sideline then the field in the end zone celebration can not describe the emotions that night for so many reasons. Wild. Thanx guys for reminding me🐅🏈

You’re welcome Jenny, was an incredible watch and an even more incredible moment. Thank you for the comment, we really appreciate it.

Been waiting on this since you guys dropped the first video. War Eagle !!

[@therealcrazyace8909]

You knew you have built a strong ass team. When beating that team is just as big of a accomplishment as winning the national championship. A lot may say im wrong, but when you talk to fans from a different team that did beat alabama. And then go on to win the national championship. You when hear them talk about how they beat alabama most then you actually hear them talk about the national championship game.

This guy commentating is one of my fav youtubers ever you should review his weird rules videos

Thanks Wesley, have got this one added to our watch list!

[@marinamccune4880]

My aunt and my brother are huge Alabama fans. They still will not talk about this game lol. As for me i found it hilarious to watch, especially since I am the only Texas A&M fan in the family, and Bama routinely runs over my Aggies.

Love this, this is brilliant, thanks for the comment Marina!

Lots of fun. I didn't know all the background either. An incredible finish to a game.

I remember this so well. I was 11 years old and a fan of neither team, but I'm proud to say I watched this happen live. Haven't seen anything like it since.

[@michaeldavid6284]

Sorry, but the greatest ending to a college football game is the 1982 game between Stanford and Cal. With eight seconds left, Stanford kicked a field goal to go up 20-19. Stanford's following kickoff to Cal was returned for a winning touchdown when the Standford band came on field before the game ended and the Cal player weaved through the crowd to score the TD.

[@DNReacts]

Hi Michael, we covered this one today, up in the playlist, was a complete shock to us as we had no idea what was about to unfold

[@WestbankGrassShrimp]

I’m a LSU fan and I get chills every time I watch that clip. One of the greatest moments ever in college football.

[@t.jpruitt6853]

Literally one of my favorite memories I have.

[@adrianbeer1237]

After all these years that play still gives me goose bumps

[@flarrfan]

One further bit of context that is rather important...the Alabama line was made up of special teamers who were good at blocking but had little or no experience in covering kick returns, such as evading blockers or tackling. That's a big reason why Davis made it into the clear so quickly.

[@undie3x7]

That is one key point that pissed me off. He really had no chance of making that kick and they put absolutely no one on the field capable of covering the return. Just the dumbest play ever. As soon as he caught it I knew he was gonna go all the way back 🤬 lol

[@chrismcbrayer4018]

I just now realized that for this season you guys will get to experience College Gameday every Saturday for the first time!

[@wareagle4789]

This was one of the most amazing finishes in college football history, for sure, but don't let the amazing finish overshadow the rest of the game. The game, overall, was fantastic, with Auburn mounting an impressive comeback to tie the game. Watch the whole game. It's just a great game from start to finish. The other thing to remember is that if Nick Saban had just kept his mouth shut, the clock would have run out, the game would have ended regulation in a tie, and Alabama would have almost certainly beat Auburn in overtime. But, because Nick Saban pitched a tantrum on the sidelines and demanded a second be added onto the clock, that's what led to the dramatic Kick Six finish.

[@robbieschneider6669]

Its not clear if Saban (the Alabama head coach and arguably the greatest college football coach of all time - this is coming from an auburn fan/student btw) didn’t account for a return being a possibility or he thought it was such a low chance it was less risky than throwing a long pass that could be intercepted by what wouldve been at least 4 auburn players in coverage in a hail Mary situation. They also made the mistake of putting their heaviest package (players on the field for a given situation) in to block for the protection to prevent auburn from blocking the kick (longer kicks need to come off the kickers foot at a low angle to go further so theyre easier to block) so once davis had the ball he wasnt returning against the usual speedy skill position players he sees on a punt or kick off. It was massive slow offensive linemen vs the best punt returner in the country.

[@mooning23]

This game ending is more insane if you understand that most long term football fans had never even seen a missed field goal being returned or run back for any yards at all and didn't even know it was a legal play. It was shocking to see it unfold.

[@MustacheDLuffy]

As a Chicago Bears fan who grew up on Hester I beg to differ

[@boddaboom77]

​@MustacheDLuffy I remember Peanut Tillman returning one too. But he is right about it being such a rare play. Especially in college because there just aren't as many long FG attempts of like 52+ in college because there aren't that many kickers with the leg to even try it.

[@JordanP807]

What happened after that was half of the stadium ended up on the field celebrating the win… it was absolutely phenomenal to witness in person.

[@grumpgro-balack8461]

As an Alabama fan I hate this game lol, but it was an amazing game. I suggest watching the only iron bowl to go into OT. Actually went to 4 in total.

[@chrisfrank2664]

Foster received many death threats after this game as this game, never played in NFL, and returned to Alabama for Law School. What Saban did by replacing him for that 57 yard FG is like what happens in NFL when a kicker has a bad game, and can be released and sign a new kicker. For this play I forget what Saban said in post-game about the kicker, if he kicked long FG's in practice before. Even if he kicked 60 yarders in practice, the last second of biggest game of season in Iron Bowl, all the pressure on him you can say is unfair. Years earlier on MNF the Ravens returned a FG before Halftime ( Ray Lewis Crushing block)! Before that not everyone knew you could return Field Goal kicks, NFL & college having different rules too, but Auburn clearly did (I'd assume both teams did) and Alabama had mostly lineman on field to block for the kicker, where Davis and Auburn had more athletic/faster players on field.
