I was there and it looked better in person, with the intense wind. He just threw his hand up there and somehow caught it without really looking!

JT Skarda

The ball was way high, and behind him a bit. Plus he was in traffic, which makes it pretty hairy.. And to top it off, he scored. Phenomenal.

Watch for yourself

Phil Wojtalewicz

There's been none better in Husker history (IMHO).

Paul Billesbach

He ran a great route, jumped and had full extension just to reach the ball, caught and secured the ball and then accelerated into the endzone untouched. A very remarkable catch, with 4 defenders cover

Tay Thomsen

Because, he scored onthe play as well.

Janet Eckard

Lets see, the leap higher than I am tall, the fingertip grab out of the air, the stride thru the whole play, it doesn't get any better!

John Dixson

it was a awesome catch in the open when he knew he was surrounded by defenders

There's been a few others that rival this one. Anybody remember Johnny Mitchell's one-handed catch?

Cuz this is America!

It was awesome, but... not the very best.

Rich Crotty

The Catch in 1997 by Matt Davidson will rank as the #1 all time Husker Catch.. it won the 5th National Championship!

Harley Morrissey

Good catch but not the great even this Saturday saw several that were better.

Rick Redfield

Remember Scott Frost to Shevin Wiggins to Matt Davison?

Bob Crockford

As great as it was, others have also made great catches. Just want to say, though, when it was caught, I was, totally, impressed and went nuts!! :) I do believe, it was the greatest by a Husker!!!

Larry Schucht

Davison's catch was better and meant more at the time. That's #1.

Exactly what Jeremy just said …. duh 😂

Jeremy Lojack

No matter how bad it looks, Dannen has to do what's necessary to keep the athletic department in the black financially. That's the bottom line. He can't allow millions in revenue to be lost just to save face.

Live in Nashville and have been waiting for this game for years. TN canceled the first one for the VTech game in Bristol. We need to be playing more elite teams outside the big10. That was what the expanded playoffs were for, more best on best games. Now we look like the typical SEC team, weak.

Kelly Smith

Stadium Reno is a horrible excuse. It is cowardice....

Jeremy Lojack

It's not cowardice. Dannen only recently was given the numbers on when and how much the South Stadium renovation would cost. He made this move to add an 8th home game to keep the athletic dept from losing millions of $$.

VAHuskerFan

It definitely seems very cowardly, very disappointed.

Jeff Barker

Terrible decision

Not all fans live in Big 10 country, and this was the one game on a future schedule that was within driving distance for me. Not to mention the Smoky Mountains would've been a great travel destination for our fans. The "stadium remodel" excuse seems like a cop-out.

Gets Rhule two wins and makes Dannebrog look good.

Bad optics.

Unfortunately, that January slide might be a bit too much to overcome. I hope they prove me wrong.

Jeremy Lojack

With their record, they'll be lucky to sneak into the tourney. NIT seems more likely.

George mcdaniel

It is 50 50 if they will make it or not

Roger Shriver

No great BIG teams this year so they sneak in, get a 9 or 10 seed, and continue their perfect record in the Big Dance :).
