Craziest football ending...ever?

    I mentioned this on the college football board, but here's the video and I don't want it getting lost on there. This is absolutely insane. I guess ESPN has it so we will be seeing it everywhere. Insane.

    More than 10 laterals on final play of game wins a Division III game today. They had to go 60 yards. Words can't possibly do it justice.

    OH my God, that was incredible; the defense had no idea what to do after the first few laterals. That was the greatest schoolyard play ever pulled off. Wow, that was amazing.

    I can't stop watching it. I see someone on the comments counted 16 laterals. How many times did it look like it was over? Here's the story on the ending.

    And as someone else noted, Mike Dubose, former Alabama coach, is coach at Millsaps, the losing team.

    That lead doesn't do the game-winning play justice. At all.

    As for Dubose, more ammo for those who want to pile on the Flop from Opp.

    Holy crap! I counted 15 laterals, though I admit I lost track of the ball once or twice for a couple seconds at a time. How the hell do you write that up in the box score? :D

    And complete with the homer color guy screaming in the background. Amazing play ... you'd think the Cal-Stanford play couldn't happen twice.

    You know, the most amazing thing is I don't think the ball ever hit the ground. Usually, if you lateral more than once or twice, you'll put it on the ground.
     
  11. I counted 14 laterals, too. Amazing some of the defenders were just standing around at the end. Crazy, indeed, but it doesn't beat the Stanford-Cal game with the band on the field. ...

    Looks like the second-to-last one or so bounces to someone, as the only one to hit the ground. Just played it on sportscenter twice. Van Pelt is speechless.
